This month's winner of Model Of The Month is

John Carlson's (Jungmann1) Bates Fokker DXXI

This is an beautiful model and build thread that certainly deserves
this award from the sheer amount of tips and information in John's thread!
 
Follow John through his build process and watch this model come alive.


For his efforts, John has won an RCSB SWAG PACK that includes
an embroidered RCSB hat and a large RCSB Mug.


Each month I choose a model on the site worthy of this award,
so get back to work on that model or start a new build thread here on RCSB!

Awesome job!
Only a handful of flights, seems like a terrible outcome. Let it sit for a while maybe another day....
Oh ya that was 2017 any thoughts to try a repair?

Hey Sparky, no issues with the Fokker, it's still healthy. Doesn't get out too much, but it has never been damaged. Not sure where you got that idea. Thanks for the honor, Mike. Really came out of the blue. I was just thinking I needed a new RCSB coffer mug, mine is getting pretty gnarly! Been a lot of coffee through that baby over the years. Thanks so much!

Congrats  John! The picture doesn't do it justices. It looks better in person and cool when it's doing those low flyby!
