Reading a book on the Tigers now where they mention the Fleet Biplane in the foreground......they joked about trying get a pilot to fly it as " Bait" for the japs !

Excellent Diarama you made...what scale what it done in?

Fantastic!!

I was hoping the Tucson Mountain ranges would do the trick. Nothing around here looks even close.

Its built from Jerry Bates Plans. 82", 1/5.5 scale, Sierra Giant Scale Retracts, Fuji 50 EIS Engine, VICRC Fuse, BestPilots, Belia Prop., Marsden Matting, GI Joe Jeep, Barrels with Chinese markings and Hay bail with Japanese Plane target to zero the guns.

I need a camo net and a couple of mini palm trees :)

Beautiful bones ARUP. The covering is great too, but the frame work in the wing gets me going.

David Great Shots all around!

Here is my Stuka shot at Black Star Canyon by K. Klos.
He is a surfing photographer who was in town for the day and was out having fun working with the speed of the planes and capturing the camouflage against the background.

That Stuka really blends into the background on a couple of those shots.
