Back in the Saddle

My day job is an airline pilot, currently flying the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.

Dad to two great kids aged 10 and 12.

An enthusiastic modeller whenever I can find the time. My building abilities are improving (usually via the method of learning by making mistakes!) and there is still much to learn, mainly due to all the new products and techniques that are now available.

British and American jets from 1950’s and 60’s are a favourite of mine, although other kits will regularly find their way onto my workbench. I have an obsession with the British Airways 'Utopia' livery and am currently building a fleet of BA aircraft in various incarnations of these designs - that will keep me busy for a while!😁
