I told that he have 3 dummys beside his bed IN the bedroom... I bet that some oy you did'nt Believe me Soooo !! I lied ! there is not 3 pilots beside his bed… He Added one more last month !! See ! And he have stuff to make 3 more mannequin fully clad !! But now the problem is room !! USN Crusader pilot !! USAF pilot, '50s gear !! A belgian F-16 pilot and an US strastospheric suit U.S If you look on the wall, it can appear as a museum too... I must confess that even me, I will hardly sleep up there !! Some kits now... The cabinets are in the dining room ... He really got a great collection, I like to paid him a visit, He's a good pal and an avid modeller !! So Gents, what do you think about ?? Sincerely.

huvut76g7gbbui7 Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 As long as that is the spare room..otherwise he needs a shed. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Learstang Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) Perhaps even two sheds (with apologies, as always, to Monty Python). I'll be impressed when he builds some 1:1 scale models to go along with the pilots (I'm difficult to impress, although I do like that Belgian F-104).

Mr T Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 If I had to sleep in that bedroom, I really would want to make sure that F16 driver was a dummy, that look on his his face is seriously disconcerting. I wonder if he spent an earlier career modelling leather goods?. Model cabinets are stuff with really nice looking stuff though. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabbit Leader Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Looks like he needs a larger cabinet... and if things get a little crazy possibly a bigger bed!!! Agree, the models looks fabulous and really do need more display space to show them off. Someone has also mentioned it above, however all the manikins have a kind of female look about them - perhaps he is secretly working on that ‘other’ gender? Cheers.. Dave p.s - Forgot to mention, your mates mad as hell. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Perhaps he should swap out the Belgian F-16 pilot with the F-8 pilot, then it would at least be in keeping with this, Major Karen Vandenbroucke, Belgian Air Force. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sky dancer Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Please help.... I have just spent 10 minutes on Hannants website searching for "understanding wife". Looking for one, preferably in 1:1 scale..... Even using the advanced search function, it still comes up with "There are no results for this search. Please search again".
