I too am in a Bill Simon build mode.
Built a Sky Hook earlier this year, and doing an upscale using a Panavia kit.
Did an Astron Cobra a few years ago, always loved that model. Finishing up an upscaled Cobra for NARAM.
The Apogee II was my first stager. I want to build another.
Did Bill design the Astron Drifter? I had one as a kid. I’m thinking that an upscale is in order.
I’ve seen the list of his designs, most of which escape me at the moment, but I do remember saying I liked most, if not all, of his models.
