However, this is a work in progress and I find that sometimes I miss things, or I may be inconsistent about what makes the cut and what doesn’t. If you found it somewhere else, you may find a more up to date version of this document in the Exotic and Special Interest/ Free Flight section in RCGroups.com. http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1877075 Send corrections to lincolnr "at" rcn "dot" com.

    Wisconsin Veterans Museum Research Center Transcript of an Oral History Interview with WARREN H. WEBSTER Pilot, Royal Canadian Air Force and U.S. Air Force, World War II 2000 OH 357 1 OH 357 Webster, Warren H., (1915- ). Oral History Interview, 2000. User Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 44 min.); analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Master Copy: 1 sound cassette (ca. 44 min.); analog, 1 7/8 ips, mono. Video Recording: 1 videorecording (ca. 44 min.); ½ inch, color. Transcript: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Military Papers: 0.1 linear ft. (1 folder). Abstract: Warren Webster, a Madison, Wisconsin native, discusses his World War II service with the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) and later the U.S. Air Force flying close air support. Webster talks about being turned down by the Air Corps because he did not have two years of college, enlisting in the Canadian Air Force, and basic training at Toronto. He estimates that twenty percent of those in flying school were Americans. Webster comments on getting previous flight training as a civilian, flight training in Tiger Moth and Avro Anson planes, flight instructor school in Trenton (Ontario), and serving as an assistant flight instructor. Webster mentions having difficulty getting promoted. He discusses duty as a check pilot and transfer in 1944 to the American Air Force. Sent to France with the 514th Squadron of the 406th Air Group, he touches upon flying support and fighter escort during the Battle of the Bulge. He speaks of different types of bombs he carried, mentions he once missed some tanks and hit a hospital by mistake, and describes the effectiveness of dive bombing tactics using machine guns.

  • Comet Dime Scale 2

    Comet Dime Scale 2

    COMENTS ON COMET DIMERS by Dave Stott Here are some interesting comments concerning Comet Dime Scale models made by Dave Stott In an article published In issue 151 of The Hangar Pilot, Dr. John Martin, Editor. Dave's observa• tions deal with stab size, night quality and the size of the hand carved wooden props he used. Model fl:Q2 Stab Enlargement Flight Quality GermanArado 5" Yes Excellent Me-109 5" Yes Fair Spad 5.5" No Poor Aeronca Seaplane 4" Slight Good Vultee Attack 6" no Excellent Curtiss P-36 5" Yes Poor Curtiss Falcon 5.5" No Excellent Fairchild 24 5" No Excellent Tiger Moth 5.5" Yes Excellent Curtiss Robin 5" No Very Good Aeronca Low Wing 5" Yes Very Good Great Lakes 5.5" No Good Curtiss Hawk 5.5" No Good Akron Funk 6" Yes Excellent Chester Racer 5" Yes Very Good Stinson 105 5" Slight Excellent Fokker 0-7 5.5" No Excellent Dave said his Fairchild 24, Tiger Moth, Akron Funk and Chester Racer were lost OOS. For those who may be contemplating building one of these models, plans are available for them online at the Stick & Tissue Aeromodellers Forum site. All Comet 10-cent kits were not 16" span models. For example the Vultee Attack, Allied Sport, Taylorcraft and the Spartan Fighter had 20" wingspans and are not eligible for FAC Dime Scale. You can, of course, reduce the plans to 80% wingspan which would make them rule book legal (according to my interpretation- or enter them as 16" WS pseudo models).

A fascinating pre-World War II Soviet appraisal of Nazi Germany's Luftwaffe airplane fleet, its organization, and geographical distribution. The main body of the image is given over to illustrations of aircraft in various profiles along with their technical specifications. At the center of the poster is a map of Germany showing the country divided by airforce precinct, with the national headquarters in Berlin, and regional headquarters in Konigsberg, Dresden, Munich, Munster, and Kiel. To the left of that is a diagram of the organizational structure of German aviation. Clockwise from upper-left, the following aircraft are illustrated: Dornier Do 10 (C-4); Arado 65; Heinkel HD-37 (as with the Dornier Do C-4, the transliteration throughout the poster is hit or miss; here the HD 37 is written as "НД" even though that would translate to "ND", not "HD"); Heinkel HD 41; Autogyro C.30 (Focke-Wulf); Junkers Ju 52; Dornier Do Y; Rohrbach Ro V "Rocco"; Rohrbach Ro VIII "Roland"; Dornier Do J "Wal"; Junkers Ju 160; Heinkel HD 55; Junkers K 37; Junkers W 34; Heinkel HE 12; Albatros L 78; Junkers G 38.

    Mikes WW1 Aircraft Models FOKKER D.VII

    FOKKER D.VII Mikes WW1 Aircraft Models I have always held a fascination with early military aircraft. After serving for 27 years in the Royal Air Force, I became a Military Aerospace Technical Author. Although, as most modelers, I got involved in the world of construction kits at an early age, I stopped for most of my service career and for some years afterwards. I started modeling again a few years ago and now enjoy the challenge of building aircraft of World War One. Since posting photographs of my completed models online, several people have asked if I would create a ’build log’ for future builds. I don’t consider myself a ‘master’ of this craft, but hope to be able to pass on what I have learned. As such, here is the tenth build log, which covers my build of the Wingnut Wings 1:32 scale model of the Fokker D.VII (Albatros built) ‘Nickchen IV’, Serial No.817/18 operating with Jasta 53 during August 1918 and flown by Offizierstellvertreter Fritz Blumenthal.
