TEMPESTMK5 8,213 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Dates: 9 Feb to 12 May 2019 Good afternoon As far as I know there has never been a STGB for the DC3 / C 47 Skytrain on Britmodeller and I think that there are enough kits already available in 1/72 and 1/48 so what do you think of my idea for next year ? Of course we would accept all derivatives of the DC 3/ C47 wich means Lisounov LI-2 , Basler BT 67 , DC 2 .. Patrice 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Rabbit Leader 12,331 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Having three in the stash (Airfix, Italeri & Esci) I could/should be tempted. I think this would be a popular GB Patrice. I've never been involved in Group Build, however this one could be my first. Cheers... Dave. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Pauly Boy 68 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 A very cool idea! Always wanted to do a Katangan C47. Would be very interested. Cheers Paul 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jb65rams 3,128 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 I would be interested in this one. No DC-3/C-47 in the stash but do have a set of Leading Edge decals for a Buffalo Airways C-47. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
theplasticsurgeon 11,045 Posted May 10, 2017 Share Posted May 10, 2017 Drat! Bought one of these last year, planning to do skis. Then built it as a Skytrooper for a colleague. One that I'll have to look for at Gloucester Show. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

modelling minion 12,909 Posted May 12, 2017 Share Posted May 12, 2017 Why not, I think I've got an AC-47 in the stash which would look nice in Royal Lao Air Force colours. This should be a good GB with lots of varied colour schemes on show. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I will be looking for one at Gloucester Model Show tomorrow - and hope to join you. Edited: didn't find one at a price I'm prepared to pay, so you'll have to proceed without me. I did buy an Airfix RCAF C-47 at that show last year - with a plan for skis. BUT was then asked to build it thus - for a colleague, who's grandfather flew them during the Berlin Airlift.
