    This is an early MkI Sunderland, made from my remodelled Sunderland MkIII, originally from the CFS3 mixed Mk Sunderland.

    I did two texs one for a CC/RAAF ac RB-H, and a RAF/CC ac DA-G.

    Cheers

    ps. Many thanks again to Ted Nachtpiloten, Steve sdBolt and John Bravo4 for their initial skill and generosity, which it wouldn't be here without them!

    Mark,

    Bloody outstanding work. But I must confess, my aim is pretty poor, so I'll target some parked U-Hauls instead. I'll let you know how they respond to a direct hit from a depth charge.

    Hi Shessi,

    I don't often say much but your Short Sunderland is "Absolutely Beautiful."

    When I was in the Australian Army (many years ago) and on leave in Sydney I went round to; I think Rushcutters Bay and watched the Short Sandringham leaving for Norfolk Island.

    Fantastic Sight !!

    Thank you for bringing back the memory !!!

    Regards,

    1150

    Thanks for the comments gents..a labour of love!

    Yes, a lot of work, BUT it would not be here if it wasn't for Ted, Steve and John's great skills, so all credit to them!

    1150, that's great!

    Cheers

    Very Nice

    Hi Shessi
    What a cracker!
    Sensational work.
    Like 1150, I remember the flying boats that flew from Rose Bay in Sydney Harbour.
    I have some friends who flew on the Sandringham to Lord Howe Island in the early 1970's.
    The service finished in 1974.
