Trevor’s sealand—a picture story

Trevor Hewson has been building a Short Sealand amphibian from a plan by Canadian Ivan Pettigrew, and you can see the build in progress at the Project Page on our website..  Modelling takes us to some strange places both at home and in the search for authenticity. As you will see...

1. The bath at home, for a floatation test!

Holding down the wing sheeting with £400-worth of NiCads

The banking, at Brooklands, in search of an accurate colour scheme

Sidetracked in the archive by models in various states of undress...

First find your spinners, then a colour scheme to match!

A snap inspection by the H&S team is under way.  Clive Spenser checks the integrity of the coffee supplies
