Noticed that the Fairchild F-71 is on Ecard. My kind of plane, in Pan American livery. Been looking forward to buying another classic in US livery. Looking for a stunning last-minute gift? Wholeheartedly recommend Terry Moyle's Art Deco Airports. Very high-quality book that is fun to page through and then read carefully.

Many thanks for the notice C9B. Just got mine. It's a superb model. Splendid artwork and engineering.
I think it's also worthwhile to mention Terry's magnificent books on art deco architecture and aviation, illustrated by him and Rosie Louise: Beautiful Book by Terry Moyle and Rosie Louise Don |

Wing folding flaps
Wonderful! Just got mine. Looks like a great kit. One minor technical note: the pieces 4i and 5i (identified as ailerons) are actually non-flying flaps that fold up in order to give clearance for folding the wings, in case someone builds one with a wing folded. The detail in this lovely kit begs for a folded wing I think .
