Any chance of some more info. We lack a bit of communication down here in the south.
If its worth a visit and the old grab a flight is worth it, it might be on the cards

Is ModelX worth going to ? It's just down the road from me so I see it advertised every year ( never been before as I wasn't making models this time last year ) but I was told it's mainly just trains and boats.

Hi Chris
Let us know the days & times you are on.
See the Model-X for more detail website www.model-x.org.nz
Its held in the West Wave Recreation Centre Henderson.
In past years it caters for all hobbies - radio control, model engineers, patchwork, model trains, model boats but IPMS Auckland always have a stand and sometimes vendors are there selling kitsets etc.
Would I travel from Christchurch for it? Tough call but IMHO I think you might be a little disappointed. Its not a full blown model show unfortunately.
Cheers
Sean

I had a look at the Web Site and you may be right. I think I will save the pinga's for the Wellington show. Thanks for the advice
