Global Scale Modeller

Hi everyone,
I'm a member of several other forums (Tony C), one of which has just updated to new forum software and as a result, I've been having difficulty getting my head around some of the changes (hence my forum name, plus someone has already pinched Tony C, grrrrrr ), so have been having a look for a new home and having had a browse, ISM seems like a nice place to be, with a few nice builds going on, so I decided to take the plunge and registered.

In all honesty, I'm not a prolific poster and am an even slower builder, with an inability to build 'anything' Out Of the Box, though I do tend to visit daily, albeit at night, as I'm a night worker!

My main area of interest is propeller driven aircraft, carrying an RAF roundel, from 1914 through to 1950 though I have also been known to dip into the Dark Side and have built one or two jets!

Also interested in British armour, Royal Navy, Formula 1 and Le Mans subjects though not too fussed about helicopters but just don't tell anyone

So, Hello everybody

Tony

Hi Tony, welcome to ISM

Hi & to ISM

Tony welcome to ISM Forum.

Welcome mate.

Completely agree about whirly things with the props facing upwards - never built one I was happy with so I now firmly believe they are of the devil!

Hello, and welcome to the forums!

Cheers everyone, looking forward to contributing to the cause...

A couple of days late, but welcome to the forum, you will have a great time here. This is place filled with knowledge and great, friendly modellers.

Thanks, having been browsing since I joined, there certainly seems to be a lack of anomosity, long may that continue
