Design Competition Announcement
Ok, so this is an official Texas Tailwheel / Ryan Short competition starting soon. I've run a few in the past... such as this one: New WW2 Light Military Aircraft Design Contest
Theme: 1919-1973 Civilian Aviation and surroundings Two categories: Simple: 1/64 or smaller scale (ie. 1/100 would be in this category): Subcategories: Pre-WWII, Post WWII Complex: 1/63 or larger scale (ie. 1/24 would also be in this category): Subcategories: Pre-WWII, Post WWII Rules: 1. Pick any subject with a civilian aircraft or airport in a period, vintage picture - this could include a building, car, hangar, aircraft, tug, or anything that is in the photo - and you have to link the photo with your design. 2. If the category is simple, no interior needed, if complex, some more details, preferably some sort of engine / interior detail will be required. Prizes: To be announced (donations welcome!) Judging: TBA For sure a people's choice poll. Duration / finish date: TBA I may need a couple of volunteers to help with the contest. I'll wrap up the contest details when I get back from the weekend! If there's enough interest, it's on!

I'm in. I'm travelling around nc for a week so I'll get a late start but I'll try to crank somehing out in time Don't plan on winning but it's good practice and I can judge too
Edit: by civilian does that mean private civil aviation or are airliners a choice too?

Any aircraft / scene showing non-military / civilian activity. That could include airliners, and could even include military aircraft like a P-51 in civilian markings for an air race.

Ryan,
To make sure I get this right, would the Airflow tanker truck on this picture would qualify for your contest? Also, what would be the deadline you have in mind? If I get enough time, I would be tempted... mostly for the challenge. This contest is a good idea, I wish enough people will share their interest on this post. Cami |

I'm in. Sounds like fun and a chance to design/build something I don't usually do.

Contest rules?
Is it only for new designs or can it be a modification of an existing design (more than just a repaint) with appropriate credit to the original designer?
Regards, John |

I might have a go
A local plane at not so far away If I could find a good 3 view of a Parnnel pixie, I can see the hangers that it was built in from my bedroom
