Historical References

Here ask questions and post historical information and references about the subject of the GB.

May also be a good place to catalog references to the art and methods of paper modeling.

If you are into Motor Bikes you will like this site ran by Yamaha, that have a good selection of free downloads including Bikes and animals.

They also have videos on how to build paper models.

Here is the link

Here is information about the Colditz Glider that I will build.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Colditz_blast;

PBS in the States had an episode about re-constructing a replica and it really did fly.

And more believable in this article the Prison rationed millet was boiled and not chewed as I had read elsewhere.

Maybe James Bond would have said, "I'll have a millet, boiled not chewed."
