I think this has appeared before but never truer:

"The best time to build for a yearly contest is the week after the current event has occured so you are ready for the next year, not the week before!"

Modelling Question 102 :

Why do current (not necssarily new ) modeller rely on aftermarket accessories? There was a time when "modellers" made their own accessories....I.E. seat belts.......white glue and tissue (TP)....not brass.

naaahhhhh...current modellers have a sense of humor....unlike the old fart modellers like myself we have no sense of humor....lol...

My first model.....one stick tied to another stick. Then I added a stick for elevators and one more for rudder. 4 sticks. It had retractable landing gear.....it had too....otherwise I would have had to add 2 more sticks. Of course all this was dependant upon the light in my cave!
