Uncle Paulie got it!


I've flown one of my models from the concrete base left when the massive hanger was removed.
The area is now a military base camp.


UP You're up. Excuse the pun !!

The Mybach engines got me into the lighter than air group and I was trying to decide on which Zepplin you wanted when I ran out of time.
That might be the first LTA we have had on the quiz.
This is a better link to the story: L59
Sparky
