November 2015 Meeting: #13

Posted on by

2015-11-13 19.37.38A little tardy in getting the photos uploaded from last month’s meeting, but here they are.  We had a fantastic turnout for #13 Night. The rules were that the subject had to encompass the number 13 in some way, and you guys got really creative: we had aircraft from VF-13, a Zero that’s serial number added up to 13, a 2013 car, and a diorama with a house address of 13 on the tiny mailbox door.

Photos are below. December’s meeting is on the 11th, and we’ll be celebrating the holiday season with our annual party. See everyone there.

September Meeting

Posted on by

2015-09-11 20.53.36As someone once said, “There’s always a big turnout when there’s free food,” the September 11th, 2015 meeting of NJIPMS did indeed have a big turnout, and a couple of 6′ subs (of the food variety, not the nuke type) along with sides and an open bar.

The kit contest was Out of the Box, and Jon Da Silva will have the results of that in the next newsletter.

October is Russian Night, so finish your red-starred builds and get them on the table.

“I saw an ad in The Star Ledger today about some of The Collings Foundation’s aircraft coming to our state August 26-September 10. The planes are a B-17, B-24, B-25 and a P-51. All will be open for walk-through tours and flights. Tours are $12, and flights $450. (Flights need to be reserved ahead of time.) The airports where they’ll be are in Monmouth, Trenton, Millville, Cape May and Morristown- a wide coverage to maximize those interested in going to see these planes”
