2003 was quite an historic year
!
Our display stand
at Scale Modelworld 2003,
Telford, England, 22nd & 23rd November
2003.
It's not often that so many important
anniversaries fall together, but at Scale Modelworld 2003, we celebrated 100
years of powered flight, 50 years of the U.S.A.F. Thunderbirds,
50 years of the Patrouille de France, 40 years of IPMS - and our
own anniversary, 10 years of the Aerobatic Display Teams S.I.G.
We are also extremely pleased that this
display won us 2nd prize in the "Best S.I.G. Display" competition !
Clicking on any of these pictures will show a much
larger, higher resolution version, which will then allow you to view from
different angles, close-ups, etc.
