Even someone of my age knows the great things Chip has done to this hobby and community... I hope he packed his tools with him on the departure.

As a child my Gran would always buy me a paper model back from her holidays, most of these and the best of them were Chip's work. Finding fiddlersgreen.net a few years ago brought the joy of paper modeling back and spured me to share that joy with others. A world without Chip will never be the same.

It's really sad to hear about the death of a paper model enthusiast and a great guy to the paper model community. My condolences to his family.

As a memorial to Chip, I had Chris over at ecardmodels put the Cessna 337 Skymaster, which was his favorite plane, into the freebies section.

I hadn't spoken to Chip but had downloaded a few models from FG.

Sorry to hear of his passing. :(
