    They were on the Northern edge of the town. I live on the south western edge of the town. Some areas were threatened as fire came down almost to the back fence lines of houses on the north side. Quietened down now as the main fire is burning in the Wollemi NP away from us in inaccessible country.

    They are a much of a muchness. Biggest problem was the nose on both aircraft and the engine nacelles. Once I got that worked out it was a piece of cake.

    Yes Ian, as of tonight both fires in the area have been listed as contained.

    Urgh... won't be doing that one then! I salute your patience!

    The bizarre and nonsensical textures are part of what put me off their DC-3...
