Guillow's Balsa Models

The Joy of Flight
     Where would the modeler's joy be found if not for Paul K. Guillow? The offering of such a diverse array of airplane model kits is found to be quite pleasing and a pure joy to sort through whether on the Guillow's website Wow! or other places such as ebay. A long history of model airplane kit manufacturing holds the answers to every aviation enthusiast's desires from the Wright Bro's to the Jet Age. Currently I am finishing up a Cessna L-19 Bird Dog balsa model kit from Guillow's stock. Looking forward to moving right on into the Piper Super Cub 95 with hopes of running the Cox .020 Pee Wee engine on it for R/C. Well it will surely be quite the challenge as I simply am not 'in touch' with the smaller variety of model airplanes. Plenty of inventory to begin with though along with several plans for rubber powered balsa ships. See you in the sky!

Jubilee and Israel’s Inheritance

      As a season of Jubilee is upon us, we most certainly anticipate a land grab to be made by Israel at some point during the course of the next few months. Just as in June 1967 during the "six day war" Israel will find the path to expand its borders once again, of this I feel certain.

Pietenpol Air Camper

How about that! A Pietenpol Air Camper in Peanut Scale by Peck-Polymers. An older complete kit picked up on eBay for a few bucks, Sweet! Rubber powered models are special, unique I should say, in that they tend to be on the small side yet at the same time portray scale flying examples. They prove to be quite challenging to build to scale form and most rewarding when they take to the air free from your grip.  Wow! Nothing better than a calm day enjoying model airplanes puttzing around the field. Fly them when you can and as often as you do think of freedom...
