Mike, I prefer the big ones. Much more pleasant to scroll through while reading the forum. I am not a favorite to open each thumbnail. Love that Gotha shot, wonderful Looking forward to your uploads.

Here we go with the Lucky Dog Photo Flood. I have posted them of the HDP and RCDP Dawn Patrol Facebook pages. But I know that some of you don't do FB (because thinking is hard). There you can see all of them (167), where I'll just put the best (or ones I like most) here. Cheers!


I guess maybe I should start off with a Pastiche image, but it works for the title pic.


Jim Suchy's new 1/3 scale Spad on it's maiden flight Thursday evening.


John Romeo's 1/3 Pup.


Brian Cassidy''s 1/3 Spad.


1/3 scale Fokker DVII






Art Shelton's 1/3 Nieuport 11 of his own design.

Mr. HDP Sir Percy. Glad Steve was able to attend (and is doing better) to run his event.


And good to see Matt Kemp. Matt is typically Steve's "Pit *****". Not sure what his title was this year since Steve wasn't flying.


Not sure if Andy's pilot was just peering around the nose while taxiing in, or getting ready to loose his Sauer-Kraut and Schnitzengruben.


Jim Suchy's giant awesome Gotha is off for a mission.


And it picks up an escort


And is attacked by Lee McDuffee's Pup






1/3 DVII


Nieuport 28

Now it's time to show off my playing around with Photoshop (rudimentary at that).


The are all three Art's 1/3 scale Dr1


Too many Triplanes you say? Okay, will take one out and add an Albatros.


A collage of Paul and Jim duking it out.


Andy's Triplane being pursued by an Albatros.


And every once in a while I get a series that I can put together as Pastiche. Here we have Mike Smith's DVII performing a loop.

Thant's all for here folks. You can see all of these and more at:

Mike,
You seem to have caught a telling picture of my N11. I see the elevator wires are not working the elevator... I found that after I retrieved it after the 'crash' that the elevator horn had popped off the servo. Apparently I was flying around for awhile like that. Oops. Perhaps a little better preflight check next time. I think I was lucky this time. Great pictures as usual.

Martin

Wow, Martin. You were lucky!

These fantastic models were by Mike Gross who traveled all the way from Long Island, NY (as did Andy and Bob) to participate in this event. He is a regular competitor in the expert class at events like Top Gun and Scalemasters.

The detailing and weathering on them are amazing. The D-VIII with the bumblebee fuselage was also his, I think.

Mike, thank you my friend.

Really good photos! Many Kudos!

.......... and Sir Percy. Thank you for putting this event together - again! What a great show!

And to all who attended and flew at the 2015 HDP ........many thanks go out to you guys. The flying is what it is all about. It is an honor to share the airspace with you.
It is builders and flyers like you who keep the creative juices flowing in me and I appreciate that very much.

Cheers,
Art
