On
May 20, 1927 the world breathed a sigh of relief as "Lucky Lindy"
landed safely in Paris after a 33 hour flight from New York. This was one of the
major events in aviation and probably did more than any other thing to make the
general public accept aviation.

This
is the recently released Revell 1/48 "Spirit of St. Louis". I found
the kit to be excellent and very accurate. The "turned metal" decals
on the nose are a little "fiddly" but look fairly convincing when
finished. Finish is SNJ buffing powder mixed with Future and a little alcohol to
thin.
