OH Wow I'm so jealous. I've been trying to get my boss to let me design and/or build paper models at work for years.
Hey since you are at 1:80 already, you might want to make it at 1:87 scale instead. That would be the exact scale for HO model railroad sets. You'll get the railroad modelers interested as well, plus the kids can get accessories at the hobby store that will be in scale.

Jon:
Did I ever tell you how much fun I've had building some of the models on your site? No? Well, I've had a heck of a lot of fun building models from your site. Have you got an N-1 over there anywhere?  I decided, that in the interests of time (The boss wanted me to design this so that it could be sold from our Gift Shop) it would be easier to include in the instructions, if the model is printed at 90%, then it will be 1/79.21 or close enough to HO scale that unless someone pulled out a micrometer, and came and measured my mansion, they wouldn't know the difference... Heh... Chris offering to market it out of his great shop is icing on the cake, and will allow for a much greater market-share than I would get out of the 1200-1500 visitors we get each year. Don't be jealous. My case is a huge extreme outlier in the grand scheme of things.

Ryan: I have one word for you: Touche!
Before I found out I had Menniere's, I loved flying. Although I hated the Cub, because my CFI had this tendency to leave the doors open, like you show here, and that always made me nervous. I didn't like being able to look over my shoulder at the ground. Enclosed cockpit please! I much preferred the Colt that we had at the field. Just as a side note, I once had the chance to fly a Ford Trimotor at an airshow, and I discovered that it handled exactly like a Cub. Well, a giant Cub. You had to really stand on the rudder pedals, and the wheel (yes, they had wheels, not yokes) took a good amount of strength to turn, but the thing handled just like a Cub. I said so to the guy who owned it, and he got this "kid in a candy shop" look, and said, "You know, you're right! It does handle like a Cub!" The most squirrely airplane I ever flew was an old Navy trainer from WWII. Couldn't hold that thing straight no matter what. Twitchy sonofagun...

Hi Cha.... Lancer,
I Had to find out what Menniere's Disease is - I've got "Old Age Disease", I thought this might be of some help, although doubtless you know about this blurb already Ménière's disease - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Richard
