Keeping up with the Aussies (1 Viewer)

I seem to remember around last Christmas some Aussie gentlemen got a couple of Sunderland seaplanes delivered. Well not to be outdone, as I looked with envious eyes, I also got one for across the ditch in Kiwiland.

It's a truly marvelous thing.

Hi Gary,
The Sunderland is the largest warbird to date and is truly marvellous. It’s size is a challenge for diorama makers but we are working on it. But gentlemen on this side of the ditch? Nuts and Mabel will be seen together in an all Aussie dio in a museum display. Two together is just awesome!
Regards, Bob

Hi Bob,

I suspect this Kiwi will just have to settle for having one! Good luck with the display and I am sure it will be a great success. Would love to hop across the ditch and see it.

Hi Gary,
Collaboration and a museum, or a really big house are probably the only practical ways to accommodate more than one of these big birds. We are fortunate here to have collaborative participants and a shared desire to expose our work in public - yep; egotists and Show-offs - that’s us. We’d be delighted to have you over for a visit when we pull this off. Perhaps you could bring one of your Axis warbirds for a photo appearance at that occasion and get some cross ditch collaboration happening
