The model airplane junkyard

Welcome to another edition of "Collecting with Bill"! We're glad you could join us today. Now, I'm sure that many of you are familiar with some of the other "collected" things I've posted. You may even be saying, "uh, Bill...this is just a bunch of mixed-up parts." That, my friend, is precisely the point. In the process of building the airplanes I've featured, I often come up with planes that, for one reason or another, just didn't work out. If I think that I may at some point find a good use for it - in replacement of or in addition to a model I'm working on; as material to see how well a paint or a decal will go with what I'm building; turning something into a "custom tricked out" model that deviates from what is historically accurate...there have been several instances where I went to the junkyard and found the perfect answer to a difficult problem. One of the things I enjoy most about building models is finding the solution to a completely unexpected problem. I've found that having a "go-to" spot for unusual situations pays off again and again.
