Hi everyone,
One of my grandsons is ten years old.He made me this sketch(now my new avatar)last Saterday morning.He sat in front of my laptop and drew my screen saver.Took about an hour.Unfortunatly a lot of detail is lost in the posting,but the detail is amasing.We framed it and it stands on the buffet.

Hi Frans

See what happens to aluminium rotor blades when you taxi over uneven surfaces too fast. :-)

The detail is very good for a 10 year old. Without looking at what you fly I could recognise it as a Sycamore.

Hi Eggbeater,
