7th March Club Night 2023
I’m Back. After my enforced isolation due to COVID, I was able to attend this months opening meeting.
As always some intriguing builds and modelling choices on the tables.
Plenty of ideas for our Group Build – Airfix Classic Series.
We were given a slide show presentation from Colin W about several museums he visited on the East Coast of Australia back in 2016.
These were the Australian Army Flying Museum & a private collection at the Caboolture Airfield outside Brisbane
Then the RAAF Amberley Aviation Heritage Centre, South of Brisbane, then a quick trip back up the M1 to the Sunshine Coast and a visit to the Queensland Air Museum.
Some great examples of Australian aviation, including the ubiquitous flying Doctor and plenty of American & Asian aircraft as well.
One of the museums had a great deal of British armour from the end of WWII through the 60s and 70s.

Next meeting will be on Tuesday 21st March – Theme: 20th Anniversary of Gulf War 2
