I don’t build a lot of airplanes, but I came across this unusual bird several years ago and thought I’d give it a go. According to Wikipedia, the Martin-Handasyde was an early monoplane with a slender wood-covered triangular section fuselage and tapered wings braced by mid-span vertical kingposts. Lateral control was by wing-warping rather than ailerons, and the undercarriage consisted of wheels on a cross-axle supplemented by a forward-projecting curved “spoon” skid. It was first flown in November 1910; pilot Graham Gilmour was eventually killed in the aircraft when it suffered a mid-air structural failure on 17 February 1912. The kit I have is the Lindberg reissue from 2014, but the model was originally released in 1966 by the British company Inpact as part of a series to tie in with the 1965 movie, Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines.

Hi all..... Please, let me introduce this old beauty wich, much to my lack of interest, have been lurking in the shelf of doom for a long time. It's been built OOB, except for some scratch built cockpit detail, and rigging made from steel guitar string...The decals were a little bit difficult to handle, but finally managed to set them. These old kit have something special around the, call it nostalgia, call it fond memories...but can't remember enjoying it half as much while building the Roden kit. I hope you'll like it. Best regards from Tenerife....!!!
