Lesser Known Classic GB Chat
Adrian Hills replied to JOCKNEY's topic in Lesser Known Manufacturers Classic GB
Hi T, The G24 is a very interesting aircraft and if you need a bit of reference try to get a look at Rob Mulder et al, book on the subject. A militarised Russian version of it was used to rescue Umberto Nobile and his airship crew. There is an amusing film abailable online called "The Red Tent" about this rescue and lots of footage of the 'G24'. The film will hopefully enthuse you and give you a real laugh - especially from the actor playing Roald Amundsen! I have made a model of the 'aircraft' depicted in the film. Hope this inspires you. Enjoy Adrian -

Looking forward to your build Pat. I have a Veeday kit lined up of the Dragon Rapide which will be turned into a Canadian bushplane with floats. I'm interested as to what can be done with this subject to make it look good. So get building mate 🙂 ee

HI Keith, That sounds absolutely fascinating. I would love to see the pictures and information - Thank You. I think the National Museum in Ottawa would also be interested 🙂

The Anson, Grumman Duck, Do17 and Lysander will all be completed by deadline of 24th. Just had a serious detonation at home so have taken a sabbatical for a few days. -
