Looks like the Tamiya 1/6 FLH

Those choppers with the radial engines are modeled from actual bikes , prolly be trippy taking one into a corner at speed...

Thanks guys for the pics, I was watching a Vendor Room walk through on YouTube, didn’t seem many people around, if that was Telford you wouldn’t be able to down the aisles. You tend to shuffle around Telford because it’s so damn crowded……Looks a great show……..

Harvey , can you take some shots of the juniors tables please?

[recon]

The HPH Helldiver!

Thank you Mike, that Bronco looks mighty fine

The seaplane tender is 1/150. The old red Ferrari is 1/6 I believe. And Martin, here is teen and jr....

[Martinnfb]

It was in Port Hueneme at the Seabees base but it was used for NAS Point Mugu. 
it was used For Polaris, Polaris  II, tomahawk, regulus, and a few others.

The F-4 diorama looks like a 1/48 scale phantom and 1/32 scale revetments.

I remember one of my younger brothers had a paper rough on base and that ship was one of his stops. I knew it sounded familiar.....harv

I'm glad everyone enjoyed the pics. My thoughts on the convention; the club that put it on and sponsored it, hats off. You did a great job. The show was fantastic with more models than I've seen befor. I heard they broke a record. I was a bit disappointed in the vendors room. No real big names there. I did reconnect with Mike Valdez from Sierra Hotel resin. Been a few years since we last talked. Great guy. Meet a new friend, one of Danny's coharts. Now my big grip. Rio Hotel. It ducked. Rooms were old., no microwave.  Just not great. Housekeeping didn't clean the room one day. No room service. And Bev is on the phone right now with them about a $180 charge on our bank card we didn't use. Also, I dint spend a cent while we were there. Mike was the only one I knew there so that was a disappointment. Ok, I'm done now. I am looking forward to Omaha next year. I hope a bunch of us can get together.....harv
