Hi @TEMPESTMK5,

 

Just wondering if you've got a Co-host for this GB yet? If not and you need one, I'd be glad to have ago, no great depth of subject knowledge but I do feel I need to get my feet wet and return the favour as I've gotten a lot out of doing the GBs generally.

 

Cheers, Mark.

Patrice, have you ruled out the aircraft built under a license by Lockheed, though they might have been designed (and also built) by another company? I hope not... Just asking :whistle: V-P

Good evening VP

 What aircraft exactly do you think of ?

 

Cheers

Patrice

****** B-17G-5-VE :rofl2:. A Lockheed-Vega built Fortress. But I know that's stretching too far and will go for a proper Lockheed Lightning instead! V-P

Hi VP

Yes you are right that is stretching a little bit too far but it was a good "try" .. By the way how much Fort' kits are already you building for the B17 GB ?

 

Cheers

OK I'm in for this one and it's going to have to be a C-5 Galaxy - only questions are Otaki or Roden and A, B, or M?

 

Most likely Otaki updated to an M with CF-6 engines from a suitable donor Revell kit (747-400?).

Looking at the stash, I'm thinking I might go for either an Airfix 1/72nd F-80 or the GWH 1/48th T-33, unless of course I get my hands on the Platz 1/72nd T-33 in the meantime...:hmmm:

Yeah, thanks Patrice...   ...don't suppose you'd consider donating it to the Wez stash?

Later today I’m going to attempt putting a 2019 GB spreadsheet together to see what modelling project I can ‘realistically’ fit in to which GB. Should the planets line up I’ll join this Lockheed one with an Airfix F-80C backdated to a 1945 YP-80A? The more I read about it, the more there is to do, however there’s something quite appealing about the early P-80’s clean lines and overall Pearl Grey paint. 

 

Cheers.. (an optimistic) Dave.

What's wrong with the Sword T-33? 

I want to be able to finish the model within a reasonable timescale and without having to fight with it, I tried making the Sword T-33 for the last Trainers GB but ended up with a yawning gap wide chasm at the wing to fuselage joint, partly it was my own ineptitude but I don't want to go down that route again.

I’d like to join please, I’ve a 1:48 Tamiya F-117A that has been looking at me for a while, waiting for me to build it. Hope to do it in the Grey Dragon scheme. Thanks!

Good afternoon Jason

 An F117A will be a very interesting addition to this GB ..

Cheers

Patrice

Good morning Nigel

 

Yes of course why not as far as it is part of LM Company...

Hi Patrice and thank you.

 

I'm looking for an excuse for a heli build so if I don't find anything I like for the CH-46 GB, I'll build one here.

 

If I do find something for the CH-46 GB, I'll most likely build a jet for this one

 

Always nice to have options :happy:

 

Cheers
