Hi All
If you're interested in models of the early aircraft, then you may like to visit a small website that moi operates:
"Model Flying Machines"
http://www.geocities.com/aerohydro/mfm
This website is a sort of resource guide for enthusiasts who want to make a working model of an early flying machine, and it gives details where plans or kitsets for a particular design of early flying machine can be purchased.
Cheers,
aerohydro
PS -I know that I'm just a newbie here, and I hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here, but the chance to plug the website in this thread was just too tempting to ignore!
