Golden Era Aircraft Brotherhood
#301
One more question for the brotherhood: I'm looking for a Williams Brothers (or others!) 1/5 scale "Wasp" kit to use in my Pepino Lockheed Vega 5B. I have some parts of a kit, and a Tiano cast radial, but I'm missing a LOT of parts! (I'll build the missing parts if I can't find any, but I'd rather have the parts that fit!) I also have 5 NIP 1/4 scale "Wasp" cylinder kits that I had planned to use on a Kinner Sportster, that I'd be willing to trade towards the Williams Brothers kit, if there's any interest in them. Thanks again!

Dummy Radial!
Tom, you've always got the COOLEST stuff! As Richard Pryor once said: "That Bro-Ham is looking good!" How are the Pup's doing? I had a Tiano radial I thought about using until today, when it fell off my pegboard and five cylinders broke off! (that's why we have epoxy and CA glue!) Luckily for me, I had the good fortune to receive a Scale Specialties dummy radial from a great modeler (Jason) on RC Scalebuilder. I have some parts of a Williams Brothers kit to go with it, so hopefully, I can finally get one together! Any flying videos or pictures of your Brougham in flight? I'd love to see some! That Aluminum work is top-shelf, too! Can you post a pic of your Earhart figure? I have one, but yours is probably better! Blue Skies!

The pups are doing well.
I'll have to see if I can find my Earhart figure. I'll post a pic, if I locate it.

Hello nc state, you are officially Brother No. 41! Please tell us what you are building or have built and please post some pictures! I have more Golden Era projects yet to built then you can shake a wing strut at! Right now I'm mulling over a downsized Ziroli Staggerwing with a 64" wingspan. Now if I would only finish something!

As some of you may already know from other threads I am laid up recovering from a total knee replacement. I still can't sit at the building table so nothing is happening with my projects. However, before the surgery I started a pair of stand way off fun scale planes for the grandkids. Since were short on activity I thought I would post a few pictures. This design is 45 years old this year. Ken Willard designed it and it was published in the March 1974 issue of American Aircraft Modeler.

Ken Willard was using Ace R/C foam wings for his designs at the time. Since those are long gone I bought wing ribs from the laser cutter who cut the fuselage for me. The Brich version gets a OS Max .10 FP as a power plant. The German gets OS Max .15 FP I have both engines on hand.
As you can see I have parts to build one of each version.

Every time I see my Graphics on a model it's sometimes hard to realize I actually made them. You did an outstanding job!!
