Model Show, Fleet Air Arm Museum, Ilchester, Yeovil

Description:

Now in its 16th year, Saturday 11th February promises to be the premier event in the South West’s model enthusiast’s calendar, with over 2,000 visitors, clubs and traders expected to attend the Fleet Air Arm Museum’s Model Show in Yeovilton.
Over 130 traders and clubs will be exhibiting everything from model aircraft, boats, figures, tanks and dioramas.
Airfix will run a ‘Make & Paint’ workshop and will sponsor competitions designed to recognise high achievement in modelling across all disciplines. So bring along your best models and you could walk away with a prize.
Weather permitting, the highlight of the Show will be a radio controlled flying display by the award winning BMFA (British Model Flying Association). The line-up for the display is not yet confirmed however previous years have seen jet powered model aircraft and an internationally acclaimed model helicopter stunt team taking to the skies.
When not seeing around the Model Show visitors can go on board Concorde and see the award winning Aircraft Carrier Experience.
Doors open at 10.00am. Tickets can be purchased on line at www.fleetairarm.com
Normal museum admission prices apply and there is no additional charge for the Show.
