Sven... Haven't you seen this movie?!

Or is that German sarcasm?

**Blackronin** · 09-06-2014 12:51

Thanks, Steve. Dave more than deserved it.

And then he will build another one just to compare...

So poorly you all know me, I am looking of course for something for it to escort, possibly a Gotha in the same scale . . . .

**Barkmann** · 09-06-2014 18:03

Then why not a Zep?

Flying model Zepps tend to fly away . . . do not ask me how I know this . . . tears . . . .

**Barkmann** · 09-06-2014 18:22

Ok then. Sorry.

A Zeppelin Staaken maybe?

**Captain Chum** · 09-06-2014 21:40

Well done Joaquim.

Nicolas, in this scale a Staaken would "only" have a wingspan of 7 meters... Even Clipper and his elves would have a difficult time building it at home...

**johnbiggles** · 09-07-2014 01:35

I have no doubt Clipper and the elves could knock up a 7 metre wing span crate in a weekend, but the authorities would be after him for flight clearance and manifest when it took off!!!

**Blackronin** · 09-07-2014 02:13

Thanks, Kelly.
It has been a pleasure to see things unfold.

**Lt. S.Kafloc** · 09-07-2014 03:50

No just a *****.

Joaquim what a fabulous gift. Clipper may it soar with grace and with the finesse that I know both the Elves and yourself can instill in this project.

Seat booked, popcorn on the hob, binoculars at the ready.

**Blackronin** · 09-07-2014 04:56

Thanks, my friend.

Forgive me if I am being stupid but was the gift a complete kit or just the scale plans?

**Blackronin** · 09-07-2014 13:21

Not stupid at all David. It's the complete model.
Dave is making us all suffer... but I would say that his Elves are suffering even more.

**Blackronin** · 10-19-2014 11:16

No more news from the Front?!

**Flying Officer Kyte** · 10-19-2014 12:13

I would think that Dave will give us an update as soon as he feels able.
Rob.

Still waiting in The Tower of Song.

I said, hei, Dave, how long does it it get?
Dave hasn't answered me yet...
But I hear him working... all night long
One hundred floors above me...
In The Tower of Song.
