    Default Zeppelin

    For those who have skill and the room. Hobby Town in Tukwila Seattle has an enormous Lindberg Graf Zeppelin model kit for $89.95!

    If only it would have fitted in my suitcase I would have taken it back to Australia.

    . . . ah, my first Zeppelin back in '71. Converted it to a Macon with parasite fighters a few years back . . . you should have ditched some clothes or kids to take it home, where are your priorities?

    1/245" scale, several have tried to make it into WWI zeppelin, but it is not very workable . . .

    Gary - it appears you are close to my neck of the woods. Are you going to make it to Portland in your journey?
    I would love to hook up (and let you re-visit the part of your collection that made its way to mine a few years back)


    Unfortunately I am leaving for San Francisco on Sunday, but will be back for Memorial Day weekend.

    Hi Pete and thanks for the offer. We did not make Portland but cruised Seattle to Alaska and back instead. I will back in Seattle late September though. Loved the Museum of flight.

    I have one, paid 50usd for it at "Ollies" a discount store. Tried selling it at Historicon without success.

    I need to get that checked out one of these days.
    There's another museum in the Tacoma area I need to see as well.

    SWMBO (the one who doesn't like to fly) has an Alaska cruise on her bucket list.

    Cheers - glad you had an enjoyable visit.
