He did and he placed... three times at least. The Dornier took a prize.

Okay, here's a couple pics I was able to get posted here from my trip to Columbus. Thanks to a friend of mine, I was able to meet up with three SPAMers.

Image

To my left, with his head on my shoulder is Fermis, wearing a lot more than previously shown (Thank God!!!)

To my immediate right, is our favorite guy we all :quotes: love to hate :quotes: : The Field Marshall himself. :bow:

...and I apologize but I forgot the name of the third SPAMmer in this pic. They had me going for awhile thinking he was Manny, but I eventually learned the truth. Unfortunately, because of that, I forgot who he is, so speak up my friend!

Manny had quite a lot of models there; here is part of his box:

Image

And here is that famous and fabulous Heinkel that looks far more fantastic in person:

Image

Seeing him packing that confirmed to me that they were messing with me earlier.

If you look behind the Heinkel, you'll see two more of Manny's models sitting on the "baby coffin" that normally holds my Dora. I didn't have the chance to shoot a pic of the stack of plaques Manny had won.

It was so fantastic seeing you guys all at the show! I finally got to meet some legends in person and I am honored and thrilled to have been able to get together.

Now to try and upload all the pics I took to my Photobucket so you guys can see more.

My God you've blown his cover! And he's not wearing his monocle! :yikes:

Good to see that Fermis found some appropriate clothing (any clothing is appropriate after Guitarzan)...

and who is the unknown SPAMmer? :bag: :hmm:

BTW, that's a Dornier, not a Heinkel... :giggles:
