CliffB Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 Looks like a good set of rules to me, hgbn. I'll be doing a 1/72 New York Airways S-61L, using the Transport Wings conversion kit, with an Airfix Sea King (plus some Airwaves PE). Thanks for organising things.

Harry Lime Posted December 27, 2013 Share Posted December 27, 2013 I must've missed this one getting floated, but you can count me in! It'll be something Westland built in 1/72, anything from the RAF or FAA. I'll decide closer to the time. Mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kwaterous Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) hgbn, do you need a co-host? I'd be willing to give it a try, although I'm not quite sure whats involved. Edited January 28, 2014 by kwaterous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex-FAAWAFU Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Count me in! Mine will either be an 820 NAS HAS5, or an 819 NAS SAR cab - either way, using the 1/48 Hasegawa "Ark Royal" boxing as my starting point. My modelling has slowed to a glacial rate at the moment, because of a combination of a new job (fun, but full-on) and a 90-year-old Mum who is starting to struggle physically. Let's see whether a GB can kick me into action if things are still the same in a year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snapper_city Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 I would love to build THIS one day. My dad took me on it before it ceased service back in 1986. Not sure what kit would be best or if anyone ever produced decals?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hgbn Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 (edited) When I was visiting my Cousin in Greenland some years ago I flew with this one http://img.planespotters.net/media/photos/original/060000/PlanespottersNet_060379.jpg One of the most beautiful flights I ever had flown. I lost my heart up there. Its simply the most stunning nature in the entire world. I could live there for rest of my life if I got the chance. If someone asked me to describe Greenland with one word only. It would be drum roll please!!!! SILENCE.
