WarbirdsNews has another great piece from Matt Jolley and Warbird Radio that we thought we would share with you this morning for Warbird Radio Favorite Friday! This week Matt Jolley will revisit a conversation with master RC Scale modeler, Dave Platt.

Dave Platt is name known across the modeling and special effects world. He worked as a model aircraft builder in the hit movie Battle of Britain. Today, Mr. Platt continues the tradition of scale modeling and has created one of the greatest instructional video libraries on the subject. His series “Black Art” is one of the most widely watched scale modeling video productions ever distributed. A few years ago, Dave Platt recorded this interview with RC Scale Builder show host Mike Chilson. It’s a true gem and this week’s Friday Favorite.

Until next week!
