Taking a cheap return fare to the UK in January might allow one taking in
the London Model Engineering Exhibition. It was formerly held after
Christmas through New Year's, but this year is was in late January.

Boats (like large R/C submarine that fires powered self propelled torpedos),
planes, steam, dioramas, tools, competition.

Here's a link about the 1998 event (100th).

Great way to spend a day or three in January.

I appreciate aviation in it's many forms, look at the
size of this thing! Anybody venture to guess how
much this might have cost?, those mini-turbines cannot
be cheap.

Not a sailplane, but some dedicated builders.
