This is an older picture of my model collection. I have since crammed a few more in there. They are mainly Topping models with a few Hyatt, Precise, and Verkuyl models.

Man, your stuff is great! Brings back day-dreaming days of my youth. I still have a letter written to me by Gene Kranz encouraging me to follow my dreams. Sometimes I wonder what may have happened if I had been more atuned to my high school studies. There are a lot of astronauts around these days!

The XB-70 is around 1/48 scale and the C-5 is 1/150 scale. I am sure there are a few 1/200 scale models in there.

I think most of them is 1:72 scale. I collect both military and civilian model, so I loved ur collection!

No way is the XB-70 1/48 scale..it would take up the entire shelf there. I think it's most likely 1/144 or 1/100.

You are right. I was going by this website, Contractor scale models by Topping Inc., Precise Models, Rolen Plastics, Matthys Verkuyl and Raise-Up

CitationDrvr

It's a beauty, though!

nice collection of Topping models- those Hueys are extremely hard to find. I have a few and also two of the Hiller OH-23 Raven, both aircraft I flew in the US Army and they are special ones in my collection.

Thanks for the comments!

You are one lucky guy having all that - I'd happily swap most of my models in a heartbeat

Built in the '80s to a 1960s design, this is a plane that first turned up for work when Prime Minister Harold Wilson wore a Gannex raincoat and the first coat of paint was still wet on Coronation Street.
But when the daily remit is multiple short hops between tiny bumpy strips in a climate that flickers from the blustery to the apocalyptic, this sturdy little craft is hard to beat.'

It sucks that you have all those beautiful models and I don't . That's a wonderful collection, don't ever let it go.
