The postage is ok and I´ll ask them to clip away and keep to themselves the paints etc. and send me just the kit. BTW, are the dates already set? V-P Shouldn't this GB go into the voting for next years GBs? Cheers, Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since its all the exact same kit it might fall under the Single type group build rules ? If its 25 then Enzo will place it into the STGB Rotation.

Robert Stuart Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Yes to buying the kit from Jadlam, though I have the F51 boxing in my stash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 @Basilisk and @Corsairfoxfouruncle, I´m not good at trying to multiquote, so here´s a citation from the opening post by Jon: "Enzo and the admins have given special permission to included this in 2018 GB calendar should we get the minimum of 20 people taking part and dates are TBC" 40 members voted in the poll and Jon is now collecting confirmations, so I see no reason this shouldn´t take place . I haven´t built a P-51 since late 1970's . Br, V-P 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Hello @vppelt68 The Sadly Funny thing is ... I did go to the 1st post. I was checking to see if there was a list of interested people. Somehow my old Mark ones glossed right over that part ? I think im getting old !

Black Knight Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 23 hours ago, thepureness said: Hi Peeps The Mustang kit is £9 including UK postage. I know it is not much of a discount but for a £10 kit and post free its not too bad a deal. What I need now is a commitment from members who would like to purchase the kit off jadlam. Please comment below and I can add you to the list. Anyone that already has the kit or will source locally please add your name down too. I'm in. although I think I have an Airfix P51D in the stash I'll most likely buy a new one from Jadlam Please try to have it failry late in the year, perhaps in the 4th quarter time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Threadbear Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 New Airfix P-51D in 1/72 scale would be a suitable choice? Plenty of operators over the length of service. Various USAAFs ETO/MTO/PTO etc etc, RAF/Commonwealth squadrons and Korea. Then all all the post war operators right through to the Dominican Republic in the early 1980s..... Variation in colour schemes is the key to the success of this GB, I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thepureness Posted June 6, 2018 Author Share Posted June 6, 2018 Guys, everything is looking ok for this to go ahead, after further discussions with other people wanting to take part we are going to adjust the rules so everyone can have some fun. * Aftermarket parts will now be permitted along with aftermarket decals which were already ok * You can submit multiple builds if you wish to * This will be a six week GB and we have been given special permission to be included in the year's calendar * Hopefully there will be a sponsor related prize to the best build voted by the sponsor. * The kit that has been voted for is the Airfix 1/72 P-51D Mustang and we'll be all using this kit https://www.jadlamracingmodels.com/airfix-a55107-mustang-p51-d-starter-size-1-72-aircraft-model-kit/ which will be provided at a cost of £9 to each member who needs a kit/s. The date is to be confirmed, I will be speaking to Jadlam over the rest of the week to Iron out the purchase process for getting the kit to members needing one.

A P-51 Mustang is fine by me i need 10 more for a project anyways. Dennis Hello @thepureness ... Were you ever able to determine the answer to that question ? I haven't seen the Starter kits over here in the U.S. ? Are the standard kits the same sprues as the starter kits ? Or are there differences ? If there are no differences is it ok i use a standard kit ? I would understand if i cant just need to know ? Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
