The next project will be this old tool Italeri Horsa glider. My first glider, so here's hoping it will be a good experience. 🙂

Made a start today. First thing to do was decide if a MK.1 or Mk.2 was to be built. I've decided on the Mk.1 so I had to cut out the parts as shown in the photo. 🙂

Welcome along Robert, Nicolas & J35J, nice to have you with me. 👍

Many thanks mates for your interest and likes Robert P, Neil, Chris & J35J. 👍
