I started building plastic airplanes when I was very young, by the time I was 8 or 9 my dad started helping me build some free flight models. Later on I started into RC airplanes.
Here and there I would build an armor or aircraft model and started a small hoard of kits.
I’ve always loved building models, but unfortunately with RC airplanes themore you fly the less you crash and even with smaller planes they start to take over the whole house.
The logical step for me was to go back to scale plastic models, which are staring to take over the rest of the house!
Anyway looking forward to checking out everyones builds and learning something new.
Welcome aboard. My brother was stationed at Mt Home AFB - I visited him a few times while I was highschool age. Did a little duck hunting, riding dirtbikes and actually built a model. There’s my Idaho model connection story Beautiful state.
Welcome from another Idahoan! I have fifty-some scale model planes in my stash. Nearly all 1/72 aircraft. But my passion now is sailing ships. Hope to see a build soon.
