DAG058 Posted November 30, 2015 Share Posted November 30, 2015 (edited) Date: 18 February to 25 June 2017 ** We have joined forces with the Mosquito STGB. All entries for the STGB will now be included in the De Havilland Group Build. Mosquitos will have a separate Gallery for completed builds** I am proposing a De Havilland Group Build for 2017. This would cover the full range of DH aircraft, from bi-planes through to the jet age. To whet your appetite a few classics are the DH Moths, Dragon Rapide, Mosquito, Comet, Trident, Sea Vixen and Venom! The Statistics as of 24/06/2017 Bellow is a list of DH Aircraft types. This is not a complete list, it just shows the main types, not every variant. I have highlighted the aircraft we currently have represented in the GB. This is purely for reference, if you want to enter an aircraft that is already highlighted please continue to do so, more the merrier! Thus far we have 96 entries, spread over 26 Aircraft types. Mosquitos are the most popular with 34 entries, followed by 15 Vampires/VampireTrainers. The galleries have 55 completed builds (23 of which are Mosquitos). That is a completion rate of 57.3%.
