Long Distance Flight, Small Scale Modeling by Harvey Low Harvey will take us on a journey recounting the longest military flight in WWII. That long-distance flight was not by a bomber, but a transport aircraft, and not by the Allies, but the Axis – it was the Italian Savoia Marchetti SM.75. flight and of course, Harvey will tell us about his project to model this iconic aircraft in 1/72nd. Boots and Saddles, Everyone! Brian Fowler will share photos he took at Fort Moore, GA (formerly Ft. Benning) last weekend where he and Shawn Hays visited the National Infantry Museum and the Armor and Cavalry Collection. Many of the tanks and artillery pieces that were previously at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD are now preserved, under cover ("and there was much rejoicing!!), at Fort Moore. The base and collection is normally closed to the public, but this was a special open house weekend where the public could view the collection, so this is an extra special treat for all of us!!
