Hi folks, I was advised to make myself known on the welcome section.

So I'm Ivan. I started with Airfix in the 1970s with the usual Spitfire and easy stuff. My biggest model was the Rocket that took Armstrong to the moon. As a young lad this thing seemed huge and had a tiny moon lander complete with crew. Happy Days.

I haven't built a kit since this month when the Bond Bug was completed. I own a real one of these and this has been my passion for 30 years. I guess this is just another Airfix kit only its a lot bigger and you can drive it.

So thanks for the welcome.. Happy Christmas to all.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing
