The owner of E.D. models is quitting to spend more time with his daughter
according to a letter published on Hyperscale. Not just Airwaves but Almark
decals need new owners. I think there are two other lines E.D. also produces.
Thank you Hannants!

As much as i like hannants, being raised by my grandparents with there lil

or face at least not how much you spend

I think I met him at the Chicago Nat'ls in 2001; bought many Almark decals.
Pleasant chap, shame to see him go.

That would be Andrew Deeley - son of Ed Deeley - founder of ED Models.

The 'little old lady' was Andrew's mother - wife of ED.

They will be sadly missed - thank goodness that Hannants are taking up
the Airwaves range.

...will provide the notice. Andrew is retiring E.D. Models and everything
involved. If I had a printer I'd make copies of some of the pages from the
Airwaves website so I could refer back and see what was missing after Hannant's
takes over.
