Hello chaps!
So to start with a bit of history:
During WW2, a Avro Anson crashed about 30kms from where I live. It was on a night navigation training flight for the RAAF, 4 people died in the crash.
So there is a man (Peter) who is a bit of a history nut and he wants to build a memorial with a plaque and a scale model of the Anson, between 40cm and a meter wingspan bit bigger is better.
He has asked me if I can make one, as I used to build wooden scale models.
I make have to make it out of steel to make it last, but if I can do it in wood I will!
So I am just wanting your thoughts on construction/materials and any random other stuff!
