Getting into a project and staying
with it can be a challenge with
all of the other stuff that gets
thrown at you sometimes, especially
around the holidays. But keep at it and
don’t let that project languish in the
corner of the shop.
RADIO CONTROL SCALE - 2005/04
MY WIFE AND I attended AMA Convention 2005 January 7-9 in
Ontario, California. Scale modeling was well represented on the
West Coast with a variety of kit and part manufacturers.
The weather didn’t cooperate with the event, and rain was the
norm for the week. However, that didn’t seem to have an effect on
the modelers and families who attended the show. There were
good crowds Friday and much larger crowds Saturday and Sunday.
Radio Control Scale - 2011/04
THERE ARE MANY Scale competitions across the country to
consider attending this year. Many start the flying season with Top
Gun in Florida in April, while the Gunsmoke Scale Masters Qualifier
is held in Arizona in March.
RADIO CONTROL SCALE 2003/11
THE ONE EIGHTH Air Force club out in Arizona really knows
how to hold any event having to do with Scale models, from
competition to a great fly-in. This is a place to get together, see old
friends, make new friends, eat too much steak, tell tall stories, fly
models, and go home happy, wondering where the weekend went
and when you’ll get to do it again.
Radio Control Scale - 2008/09
IN WRITING this column, I often learn new and exciting
information or am able to help other Scale modelers with
different aspects of their projects. Reports filter in from Scale
events across the country, and I try to attend as many as my
schedule will allow. Then there are times when I find out about
an airplane I never knew existed, which can be a treat for Scale
modelers.
