They would probably do better if they changed the name! Seems like 'things' are secondary (at least!) to wings

If it is like most other model shows, then model cars and trucks will be greatly outnumbered by aircraft and military modelling....thus Wings and Things.
....but then you knew that already !  :grin:

You are quite right and yes, I do know that but if they are having trouble attracting other genres, not hard to see why..... :tongue:

Guess they couldn't use "Wings & Wheels" as thats a Coventry show.
Thing is we've been approached and its a start, if we want to promote truck modelling this kind if show needs infiltrating :thumbsupup:
