littlegto Posted May 15, 2022 Share #20 Posted May 15, 2022 Fantastic display. Do you have any extra ESCAPAC parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vark_07 Posted May 16, 2022 Share #21 Posted May 16, 2022 That's an awesome-looking aviation addict man-cave display ! I wish I had a spare room to create a dedicated place like this one - when I'll move in the next years to something bigger, surely 😉. Good luck for packing everything, I only know too well how that can be the nightmare of every collector ! Don't forget to post the update on your new place when everything is back on display, arranged, smooth and cosy 😀. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skysoldier80 Posted May 17, 2022 Share #24 Posted May 17, 2022 Wonderful collection. Funny you mention moving; getting ready myself. Built a house with a secured, fire/flood proof, temperature controlled room. Problem I have is the rest of the house is easy to pack, but my collection isn’t. I told my wife I will save that room for last. I hate moving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
