38 • MARCH 2018 • SCALE AVIATION MODELLER INTERNATIONAL
SHOW REPORT
Model Engineers Exhibition
T
he Model Engineers
Exhibition has been a
fixture on the model show
circuit for over 60 years and
though the main concentration
of the show is large scale
engineering models three
model clubs Hornchurch, East
Middlesex, and Barnet flew the
plastic modelling flag.
Also on display was a
scratch built 1/72 scale
ship that actually drew
the attention of the
national press. Though you may
think this is outside the remit
of this Magazine the model was
of the HMS Ark Royal in the late
1970s carrying a full complement
of Phantoms, Buccaneers,
Gannets and Sea Kings, So I make
no apologies for featuring it here.
