Enjoy the pictures.
Nice meeting Dork the kitslayer and Filip from Belgium in real life. Hope you enjoyed the show.

WOW!
That looks a seriously good show, and you guys had a MAGNIFICENT stand!
Loved the 'Jetfire' and the Fokker F26.
I'll really look into coming over next year I think.
Tremendous selection of pictures that do full justice to fantastic modelling, thanks for sharing.
THANK YOU!! A superb display of whiffery, and a comprehensive tour of the whole exhibition.

Totally agree with all these fine gentlemen! :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Some great looking pics. I am going to have to go back and enlarge the page so I can get a good look.
If want bigger pictures to see more detail, take a look in my Flickr album: https://www.flickr.com/gp/jetsonsspecial/02T9s716n6

Absolutely fantastic selection of pictures thank you very much :thumbsup:
Some incredible models there, both on and off the What If stand. You did our side of the hobby proud :thumbsup:
Made me make a note in my diary to check out the feasibility of coming over next year.
Incredible! So much excellent quality there I hardly know where to start. I love the Messerschmitt P1111 in NACA markings. :wub:

I was just thinking the same. It's a 6 hour drive with ferry.
That's less time than it takes me to drive to my daughter's place in Port Lincoln, & that's in the same state!! :unsure:
What everyone else said! I know I've seen a few of those before but I can't connect a name.
Just two more from me.
I took the pictures near the end of the show. Earlier it was too busy to get a clear shot <_<

Tom managed to get us six tables this year. Being part of the team that organizes the ESM has its perks.
If you look at the rules we could have gotten 15 tables in all. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
All of us are IPMS member and member get a maximum of 5 tables for display purposes for free.
We could have requested the tables to be grouped together. Normally those requests are granted.
Reading the rules has its advantages
In order to fill 15 tables next year we would definitely have to finish all those shelve queens!!!

I could fill my Volvo 850 Estate with all mine too. ;D

Absolutely. Put it on the agenda.
I was looking at Eurostar but have just seen that services will be disrupted next year June to December. The Passport area at Amsterdam is being replaced so you have to travel to Brussels to be processed for onward travel to London.

Cool, thanks for sharing! :thumbsup:

If only there was some way crossing the channel could be as easy as crossing a European land border...
;)
Good pics. Thanks for sharing.

Yup, but on a couple of occasions that little strip of water has proved quite useful ;) ;D
ISTR travelling from Waterloo station to Bruxelles Gare du Nord on the Eurostar and only having to show a UK driving licence (the old paper one - no photo) as ID.

I can remember travelling from Waterloo to Paris a few times for business and not having to show anything. I had my passport with me, but didn't need to show it.
Mind you I can remember travelling to the Continent as a kid and my parents very seldom had to show passports. I always had to show mine because the Immigration people wanted to make sure I as a 7 year old had a really clear stamp in it ;D
UK immigration on the way back however :angel:
Before Hungary joined the EU, I once had a 4-hour wait at Customs traveling back from a holiday there. The other extreme was passing the Germany-Netherlands border at 180 km/h coming off the unlimited Autobahn.
I'd prefer the latter. ;)
Don't start me on border crossings between the FRG and DRG. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:
