Update ~ Al DuVal's Collection

Further to the blog about Al DuVal's collection of 1/48th models it is a pleasure to report that a permanent home for the collection has now been found at the Frontiers of Flight Museum in Dallas, Texas. Al loved that place and it would have meant the world to him to know that his models would be on display there.

Thanks to Mark Smith for this good news.
