This will be absolutely no help to you at this point in time...but I've just started producing a range of white metal 1/72 scale figures. The whole thing started off on the basis that the figures would be aircrew, but looking at figures which are and have been produced, the whole thing kicked off Fleet Air Arm orientated (on the basis that very few had been done). However, it gets worse in that I've not actually as yet done any FAA flyers.
So, RAF (and Commonwealth) bomber crew are most definately on the agenda, but after FAA figures, then some WW1 RFC/RAF fighter chaps, and then probably some more Navy personnel.
My figures are generally doing what many service folk might recognise as a key part of military life - standing around waiting. Is there likely to be any call for figures in place inside aircraft?
