No. The names were used very occasionally. AFter the first one I didn't use another one for years.
 
Lets make it a little easier. I willlimit it to just the ones published in the UK and just song titles or parts of a song title. Now you all have a fighting chance.
 
However I will expect a few of the actual names in the answer.
 
And to put you out of your misery. That first one was a control line biplane published in Model AViation in March 82 and it was called Tiger Rag.

Peter, there may be a flaw in this comp
 
Might people be reluctant to post your model names up here, because that will give the answers away to anyone else who's entering  ?
 
E.g, if I said "Yuppy Love", that would give that design away to everyone else who wasn't aware of that model

Myron. I am sorry about the spelling. Trying to write the text for the model feature. Edit and adjust photos, cook lunch, answer emails and post replies and I tend to hit the keys too fast.
 
Simple answer. I reduce the work load. No more Forum answers

I see your point. Well, Just tell me how many. But I may ask for proof if you get the right answer.
 
And Yuppy Love isn't one of them as far as I know!

Not Yuppy Love? I had you down as a 100% dead cert for an Osmonds fan!
 
I guess I'll also have to rule out Bonzo (Dog Doo-Dah Band), seeing as that's the artist, rather than a song title. I always liked the look of that aeroplane.
 
I think my solitary chance of winning went up in smoke when the dastardly Mr Wood logged on ten minutes before me with the Captain Scarlet answer - PolyMysteron, I reckon
 
Its great fun going back through the designs I can remember, though, and I've also turned up a few I wasn't previously aware of.

I didn't know Yuppy Love was a song, Oh, yes Puppy Love. Not a deliberate intention.
 
Yes, I seem to remember that it was the Bonzo Dog Doo da band that inspired that name. I will give you that one.
 
No, in fact the ones I was thinking of are all song titles but possibly one word missing.
 
Hey Myron. I used the spell check. Now go and pick on all the other  illegiterate postings on the forum.

He came up with a whole mass of songs etc that I had never even thought of as music connected.
