Impressive build. Love the busy look with all the aircraft on deck. The two planes “flying” over the base is a nice touch too!

@RedDuster: Simon you told us you have the AV-1 Langley aircraft carrier lurking in stash. How many aircraft does your carrier have? “giggle”… :woozy_face:

Hi Thomas,

Apologies for the slow response, life has got in the way of model related activities, I was in the loft getting the Christmas decorations down, took a minute dig the CV1 out. 16 aircraft, 6 F4bs 6 Dive bombers and torpedo bombers.

I do need to finish something before I can start something else.

Cheers

Hallo Thomas,

auch von mir vielmals Entschuldigung - just as Si says, live has got in the way of model related activities, for me it is still moving to Berlin step by step and the new job…
Anyway, congratulations to commissioning another wonderful build, that was fun and amazing to watch throughout! Great job done my friend!

Already peeked in to your next one, will be following as well, of course - hopefully next year will bring more ship model related activity time…
