I watch about this infamous "Gimli Glider" many times in Nat Geo channel Air Crash Investigations episode. Many says it's the miracle landing before Sully, which also safe landed. The Air Canada case in my opinion  is pretty similar with Sully's case, both lost both engines and both glide down and landed safely, one on Gimli Airstrip and one on Hudson river, but Air Canada flight 143 started on much higher altitude (41,000 feet) which give the crew more time to think. The key part is the sideslip manuver by pilot Captain Pearson, to slow down the plane before landing. The papermodel is in 1:100 scale.

I saw this cute costumed drummer recently in Youtube, she or he is very skilled drummer. She/he has a pattern, starts with normal drumming then in the middle she/he suddenly snaps and begins to change from normal  beat into metal beat. She/he is an apple with a cat face, an apple cat. Its name is Nyango Star, I thought it comes from mango fruit, but I think the name comes from Ringo Starr, The Beatles drummer but I don't know. This chibi style of Nyango is about 15 cm high when it fully assembled.

Here we are in the "spooktober" again and this time I have release a pretty spooky mask. Combine it with hoodie and a long hair wig will make it even spookier for this Halloween. My son always charge me and hitting me whenever I wear this mask, somehow it made him uncomfortable [lol].  At first I already planned to make a horse mask, but stumbled upon some creepy wolf skull mask on Google image search and divert the plan. The horse can wait. Unlike most of my template, this one I use bitmap texturing, still learning but quite happy with the result. I recommend to use paper above 160 gram, because in build test I use 100 gram HVS and it was quite hard to assembly, but it can be done for skilled builder.

We have a new livery for our DHC-2 Beaver. Recolored by Jonathan Norman, he said he used to fly with his friend who flew N92AK Beaver. When his friend asked him where to find a wooden scale model of a DHC Beaver, he had something else in his mind.     This paper model is in 1/32 scale. Big enough to have a decent details. The model wing will have about 45 cm wingspan. You need to use 3 type of paper or card, for the main template 160-200 gram card will be good and for the struts and spinner you will need 80-100 gram paper and the last is 1 mm thick cardboard. I also made a new numerical system, the formers will have F letter on the front and G for glue-tabs and each elements have the same number, in example if part 4 has glue-tab it will be G4 and if it has former, it will be F4. I made a slide show video on youtube about this build, you can watch it here. Please Subscribe my channel of you like :).
