SCUTTLEBUTTNEWSLETTER OF THE CANBERRA December 30th Year 2018 MODEL SHIPWRIGHTS ʼ SOCIETY Established 21 April 1988.

Gossip or rumour. our home would be snapped up as soon as it appeared on the market. Not so!!! As a result I am still here to make December’s Letter. Our resolve remains though and as soon as we have a buyer we will be off, sometime in the New Year. You will have seen the works in progress on the models being built by students of the Mount Rogers School. I am pleased to say that these models of the Duyfken have now been completed and hopefully reside proudly in their builders’ homes. Ray Osmotherly and I had the pleasure of presenting Certificates to the young modellers at a School Assembly in November. Thanks to Elizabeth Hodsdon for the Certificates and of course again to Steve INSIDE Batcheldor for producing the kits and also to those who assisted during the term. 4,5 - We Visited Which brings me to Expo 2019.

The usual temptations were there with the abundance of traders in attendance as well as the ever Modelling popular swap and sell. Again I didn’t see a great deal of swapping! 28 - Restricted Modelling In the last Newsletter I bemoaned the fact that only Bruce Kirk and 30 - The Fiji Gas I manned the CMSS display at Malkara. I was delighted when nine 32 - Dornier Flying Boats volunteers put their hands up for the ACTSMS Expo, sincere thanks to you all. Not only does this considerably lighten the load, but it also allows us to spend quality time absorbing the great models on display. ` 2 COMMITTEE MEMBERS - 2018-19 EDITORʼS NOTE President Bob Evans Vice-President Edwin Lowry I seem to remember that Christmas was the Secretary Bill Atkinson time of ‘bumper editions’, when magazines and As.Secretary Ray Osmotherly periodicals arrived with the promise of plenty Treasurer Peter Hateley Members Bruce George, Bruce Kirk, Rod Carter of reading to tide one over the holiday season.

    Planning Committee

    COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF MAUI PLANNING COMMITTEE November 6, 2015 Committee Report No. Honorable Chair and Members of the County Council County of Maui Wailuku, Maui, Hawaii Chair and Members: Your Planning Committee, having met on August 6, 2015, August 20, 2015, and September 24, 2015, makes reference to County Communication 15-66, from the Planning Director, transmitting a proposed bill entitled "A BILL FOR AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 19.04, MAUI COUNTY CODE, RELATING TO GENERAL PROVISION AND DEFINITIONS." The purposes of the proposed bill are to establish within the Comprehensive Zoning Ordinance a definition for "wet bar" and to limit the number of wet bars in dwelling units. A wet bar is an area within a dwelling unit that contains a small sink and limited refrigeration or small appliances for making beverages. Your Committee notes the Lanai, Maui, and Molokai planning commissions recommended approval of the proposed bill. The Planning Director informed your Committee the Department considers wet bars to be "kitchens" as defined in Section 19.04.040, Maui County Code. This interpretation has led to the denial of building permits for dwelling units containing both a kitchen and one or more wet bars because dwelling units are allowed only a single kitchen. Separately defining wet bars would enable the Administration to distinguish kitchens from wet bars when reviewing building permits. The Director further informed your Committee the proposed bill will help address the proliferation of illegal vacation rentals. Regulating the number of wet bars permitted in a dwelling unit will lessen the potential of a dwelling unit being converted into a vacation rental.

    Dornier Do X Flugschiff (Flying Ship) As It Was Called, Was Conceived by Dr

    DDOORRNNIIEERR DDO XX ""FFLLYYIINNGG SSHHIIPP"" SPORT-SCALE ARF R/C MODEL AIRPLANE The Dornier Do X Flugschiff (flying ship) as it was called, was conceived by Dr. Claude Dornier in 1924, financed by the German Transport Ministry, and produced by the Dornier company of Germany in June of 1929. With its crew of 14, wingspan greater than 157 feet, 12 engines mounted above the wing on pylons in a push-pull configuration, and a maximum takeoff weight of 123,460 pounds, it was by far the largest heavier-than-air aircraft of its time. With a smoking room that had its own wet bar, a dining salon, and seating for 66 passengers – which could be converted to sleeping berths for night flights, its passenger accommodations approached the luxurious standards of transatlantic ocean liners. To introduce the Do X to the world, it took off on November 3, 1930 from Germany to visit the Netherlands, England, France, Spain and Portugal. It arrived at New York City on August 27, 1931, where thousands of sightseers visited the Glenn Curtiss Airport (now LaGuardia Airport) to tour this leviathan of the air. Although very popular with the public, numerous non-fatal accidents and other factors prevented more than three from ever being built. Two were broken up for scrap in 1937. The remaining Do X eventually became the centerpiece of Germany's aviation museum Deutsche Luftfahrt-Sammlung (German Aviation Collection) until it was destroyed during WWII by an RAF air raid the night of November 23, 1943. This RC Dornier is about 1/20 scale and took us almost 2 years to design.
