It was nice to see some of you at the SW Model Exhibition (I had my stuff on the UKTC stand). I tried to get the frequency peg so that Matt could have another go at running the 1/8 Panther around, but one of the boat guys had it, sorry.

Thanks to the Armortek people for the running area and for bringing the bridges.

I had a lot of enquiries from people who had 1/16 tanks and they were directed to a certain forum where all the knowledge is (this one)

A great weekend away, well worth a visit next year

Dave also attended the Halfpenny Green Airport (Wolverhampton Airport) http://www.modelwarfare.co.uk/graphics/ ... en%200409/ too, he gets around with that Jadgpanther.

Is been a busy year so far, 11 events down loads to go, and if the weather carrys on like it is now I'll have a lovely tan.
All tanked up
