Glynn Guest started building models as a schoolboy with free-flight model aircraft leading to radio-controlled models. He quickly realised that model boats tended to last longer than aircraft and definitely did not get stuck up in trees. Having a technical education, it soon became more rewarding to design his own models and learn how they work. He has worked in most areas of this hobby, but model warships have always been a favourite subject. Since the mid-1970s, he has had many plans and articles published in international model magazines.
