    What are the models made from ?

    I imagine the engines have electric motors to turn the props ?

    Looks pretty good to me. I wonder what will happen to them when filming is finished ?.
    That’s as long as they don’t get blown up.

    I’m sure there’s one or two museum who would like one. I assume that they
    will all be painted up with dual identities ?

    As one Chadwick designed aircraft takes to the air, another he was involved with, will be consigned to the ground.
    Fair exchange I suppose.

    Thanks for the replies guys,I eventually got a reply from P bucket and the nice blue colour has been restored so have decided to continue with it for now – I do not take that many pics so the slow upload is not so bad for me.

    I still use the old style Photobucket. It works well for me, and I have so many pictures on various forums,
    linked to it, I’m not going to change now.

    I don’t know if it’s just me ?, but I fail to see anything remotely amusing.

    Maybe it’s an age thing ?

    Make the most of these ‘bloke’ programs chaps. Now that TV is run largely by the ladies, with their endless pre-occupation with ‘lifestyle’, ‘bloke’ programs will become rarer than pork in a halal butchers..

    Thank goodness for Discovery, History Channel etc. Even with all of the repeats.

    I wonder if any of these models employ a “safety-chute”. Which I believe is
    a stipulation on models flying in the US ? Or maybe just those over a certain size ?

    We have a special interest in the Meccano bridge episode.
    My wife’s nephew was involved in building it, as an engineering student at
    Liverpool Uni.

    I think that getting the fuel for them was also an issue that
    was mentioned before ?

    Excellent models and pictures.

    Although they could do with some weathering to add to their realism.

    Just a quick question – is there any point in using the digital zoom? In the past on cheaper kit I have only ever used optical zoom.

    Not in my opinion. I don’t think you’ll achieve anything that “cropping” wont.
