Blackburn Blackburn

摘要

Terry Manley's Blackburn Blackburn defies belief. To think that it was drawn up deliberately with those Elephant Man looks is a true testament to British intestinal fortitude. However, from the aeromodelling point of view, the model is a sheer delight. All those Popeye portholes, louvres, grills, rigging, struts, and Roaring Twenties excess just scream 'character'. As I'm sure you'll agree, she's a truly wonderful Class 1 scale model. The Blackburn R-1 Blackburn was conceived in 1922 as a carrier-based reconnaissance aircraft for both fleet spotting and gun spotting duties.
