Child of the 60s, and brought up on Airfix, FROG and (later) Matchbox kits. I joined an IPMS club in the UK in the early 70s and got hooked on the hobby. 1/72 aircraft are my primary interest, with occasional forays into 1/48 and 1/144. Moved from the UK to Canada in 1993, where the long, cold winters provide lots of opportunity to build models.
