I was searching for the DH-10 but came across this:

Fantastic!

DH10 was built for me by my good friend Smirnoff.  He found to reasonably easy, other than replacing the thin plastic wing struts with cocktail sticks which gave it strength...and yes, that Gotha looks the part....

Well I already have a Gotha...but damn I forgot the 10!!!  I must, I must, I must add to my airfleet!!!

Nice looking air force! It's good to see the Walrus assembled, mine is still in the box but now I've seen yours I may be inspired to put it together. I look forward to seeing your airfield when you construct it.

Being unsure of the cross-posting policies & etiquette here^* I shall merely ask that you direct your attention to THIS thread:

I know many of you have become avid "Goose" hunters, so may I present, by way of an inducement,



They've got styrene plastic boats too, all ready, & EASY, to convert or adapt to your own nefarious purposes!!

^*I asked my colleague Mad Lord Snapdragon about this, he flushed a fearful RED, stammered "twasn't true, he knew nought of cross dressings, they were all filthy liars, really it was only once at that pantomime, in the Mess..."  I left him muttering, nursing a stiff brandy, sadly no wiser than when I'd broached the subject

I have one of these ready to paint. It's a great kit!

One by ushistoryprof to gawk at from an old post;

....Pulp has so many ways to play, here are some pictures of the variety of pieces, like this plane, you can use for Pulp games.

DAYUM!!

I LIKE that!!

& you are absolutely correct, she's a topless P6E, one of the all time most beautiful biplane fighter 'planes.



She's actually in my Top 20 Most Beautiful 'Planes of ALL Time!!

One little known fact though, despite the diminutive size, P6Es could carry an enormous payload:



YMMV

Valerik you cant fool us!
Thats not cargo the P6E is carrying. It is actually sitting on the flight deck of a XM37A Mobile Airfield as tested by the US Army Aircorp circa 1934 outside of Bakerfield CA. That particular XM37A is now parked outside of the entrance to the Planes of Fame Air Museum at Chino. A place well worth the price of admission.

. A place well worth the price of admission.

Good.  It's about damn time they did that.  

Woodie Guthrie is probably outraged, but paying to get into California is long overdue, as am sure those denizens would agree.

Now if only they'd raise the price of the exit visa the rest of the continent could relax.

I do hafta thank the Californianos for one thing, Orange Juice Marketing.

I always use the OJ Scale to rate games & AARs.

It's a sliding scale from Canned to Fresh Frozen to Not From Concentrate to Extra Pulp.

Those games with "adult" content are judged from Mimosa to Screwdriver to Harvey Wallbanger.

In either case a series of  1 to 5 complete or segmented suitably coloured spheres provide immediate visual reference of satisfaction.

The Piaggio Pegna PC7 would make an unusual ride (especially seeing it never quite flew in the first place!):



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piaggio_P.7

A 1:32 scale model (a bit too large) is available, but is extremely expensive.
http://www.grandprixmodels.com/searchdetail.php?ref=MMAT32017A&/Marsh-Models-Aerotech-1:32-Piaggio-PC7-model

Then again, a kitbash of something which approximates its features should not be impossible.

Heh - ok, the original didn't fly, but that one certainly did 
I admit I omitted to look up videos - nice find.
