Hi .

      Well , I usually don't build in this scale ,   But I found these in a pile of train parts and had to give them a home . . An OLD Airfix - Dehavilland Beaver Float Plane  and a  Matchbox- Heinkel -H.E. 115 Float - Plane . 7.00 bucks for both ! Pristine shape and eminently buildable .

     The Beaver has a full interior albeit a poor instrument panel ,  one lives a mile from me .   The Heinkel with acres of glass has two crew and nuttin else , nada ! no way Jose ! Does anyone know what the Heinkel looks like inside ?

      Can you say teensy control horns ? The Beaver is full of them . Two open doors as well  !
