FBGS Run Wentworth Falls 4th June 2017

Post by MichaelB »

A unique run these days, quite a few members turned up and 1/72 scale models outnumbered the other scales. Fifteen models on hand and ten of those were 1/72.

Despite the time of year it was surprisingly warm, enough that when the sun was out shirt sleeves were the order of the day. When clouds came along, we dived for jumpers and coats.

The 1/72 had their now usual fleet manoeuvres operation and tail chases while the larger scales charged around showing how spectacular large fast models can be.

The photos below are for 1/72 and were by Dave Pearce (DP)
