Hmmmm . . . We will have to see if anyone on Shapeways makes the Gamma is it? Well Zoe?
Yes they are for another adventure
Is the pilot Penguin called "Ray"?
I laugh in the face of danger - then I hide until it goes away!
Tim,
remind me to Gibbs slap you on Saturday
Lest we forget
No joy on the search for 1/200" scale or anything on Shapeways, yet . . .

Couple possibilities here....
Guess you should post on the request list.

It would not be a very viable model since it did not see any military action, just as a fun traveling novelty I could enlist the elves for one, or 2. A China Clipper, now that would be coolier! And readily available . . . .

We missed this, too? How oblivious we are.

The Penguins might want to recreate the Vickers Vimy flight to Australia . . . I know a guy with a Shapeways Vimy . . .

Lots of wing area for decals . . .

OH does this mean we may have another Penguin flight around the world ? Some folks here may not know about that epic flight from Australia to Colorado and ending in Virginia Beach, USA.
My friend Richard has the plane.
The logistics were amazing, keeping the plane on course and climbing took a lot of effort! It was very cool, do we have the talent today?
I'm still here and not gone doolally Dave, so I would say that yes the talent is still here
From the last experience of 'overrun', if you are aiming for Origins 2018 then the flights should have kicked off 3 months ago.......
The AIM Clipper is tempting.......fairly light, no floats to knock off, lots of wing area for sponsorship but no room to put a penguin.

Run for your life - there are stupid people everywhere!
We must have the visible penguin element! : ) My ponderings on the logistics was in view of the number of our crew who are no longer on site, and our relatively smaller population at the moment. I think the effort could build our crew and connect us once again, rebuilding the Fellowship of Pen Guin! : ) Are there enough fish out there? And as I recall a lot of tipples were involved too . . .
I was in the first flight so you know I am in for the next one. It was something to see where the plane went and all the items added for the trip.
