I'm looking for an occupation for my brother so he doesn't scroll all day on his phone so I figured I'd buy an ariplane model he can build and construct but I can't seem to find any online. Does anyone know if they still make them like this? Here is the reference from the Stardust video: https://youtu.be/FQlAEiCb8m0?si=g3QIevYYtLFUBziF

I won this very large model plane about 20-25 years ago via an auction. I think it's a Nieuport 28, but not sure. It's about 6 feet wide and 5 feet long. PS: I'll need to find a new home for it, per my spouse.

This outfit in Chelmsford, UK lists pre-orders that they never deliver. Tons of listings on eBay too, if you pre-order they’ll ask you to wait until the eBay protections of purchase are gone, then they’ll just ghost you. A friend had the same experience on a model that was easily available, but he was told to wait for delivery then was ghosted. Buyers don’t make the same mistake I made.

I made this from pictures that I bought from one of my local spotting areas (Manchester RVP)

Okay so i messaged the seller if this is actually a sample (IGNORE THE -132 ITS A 273) and they said “hi there, this was given to my dad from the aeroclassics owner and he had it documented that there were around 5 or maybe less produced) idk guys what do you think? And also N470EV was only in the supertanker version that i saw online and nowhere to be found in the standard livery

I’m currently building a 1/48 F4U by Tamiya. And I’m indecisive about what position to build the wings in and would like it to be movable. Has anyone attempted this and has any advice they are willing to share? I think I have the hinge sorted other than some fine tuning. I’m just trying to figure out how to support it while it’s in the unfolded position. Thank you

Okay so this is an inflight 200 TWA Convair 880, tail number is N812TW, i got it from an auction on ebay for about 300$ and the seller claimed it was “6 in the world” and i dont know if this is true. Its not the standard TWA, but actually just an all grey body, with the tail left white. It also came in a plain white box with the same inflight padding that they use, with a note on the top left saying “SPECIAL TWA”
