Equal time

Since I have written quite a bit about Sweet-Pea lately, I decided to post a sequel to Lionel's "Boys and their Toys" post. He has been building planes for a while now, but they seem to be getting bigger. That last post showed the smaller planes...here are some of his larger ones.


Sopwith Camel













F6F Hellcat










Brewster Buffalo














Messerschmitt ME109












Focke Wulf FW190










So there you have it...more planes in Lionel's ever growing collection. His next venture is to built wooden model planes with Grandpa. Some day I'll snap a photo of Grandpa's garage - the ceiling is literally FILLED with models that he built himself. I think the two of them will have a great time building a model together. You can be sure I'll add more photos of the process...Lionel will see to it!! (I apologize for the swastika symbols in this post, but those German planes are the real deal and there's no avoiding it...it's history...unfortunately!)
