Occupation: I work in Risk Management for a large US financial corporation.
Total No. of Collections: I have sold numerous pieces of my collection throughout the years, but right now I have around 80 on display of which 25 are Hobby Master products.
Favorite HM Models : That’s easy: HA 1951, 106th TRS RF-4C of the Alabama Air National Guard. I lived in Birmingham, AL for a few years as a small child and vividly remember the sound of the RFs coming and going. In fact, my father helped paint this plane, “047,” in the colors she currently wears at The National Museum of the United States Air Force.
Reasons for Collecting : I credit my father for starting my interest in military aviation as well as my grandfathers, who both served in the US military, for building my interest in military history in general. Like most collectors, I built plastic models up into my teens. As an adult, I decided I wanted to have a large military aviation model display and the easiest way to build a model collection is with diecast.
Most Expected Future Models: Any and all F-4s and hopefully a Libyan Raider F-111. I would also like to see HM step out and issue a new 1:72 F-16, especially an Alabama ANG F-16!
