One further note, You might want to have several possibilities where your piece will or can be displayed other than a contest. *Museums. Hobby Shops, Libraries, Air shows, airports, private or permanent hangars where real aircraft are housed and repaired, *Aviation tech schools, Corporate headquarters Like Aviation Publishing co., Aviation Specialty shops book stores or etc. Finding a permanent home is not difficult if its well done. *The first place my Staaken Diorama went on display was the U.S. Airforce Academy in Colorado Springs. It has been on temporary loan to the Wings Over the Rockies *Aviation Museum for 4 years. If you do a club sponsored contest entry the post contest and ultimate location should be established first and one person should be in charge of its disposition. This person would then answer to the club.

While there is more on the topic it can all be gleaned from Shep Paynes great work. *How to build Dioramas. Verlinden has great scenes and ideas. Don't discard any possibilities.
