TonyOD Posted September 1, 2020 Share Posted September 1, 2020 I had this ridiculous notion that I was going to do some crazy ambitious double build, but this is going to be my first GB, there are some impressive projects lining up already and after all I would like to finish at least one more build this year(!) so it will probably be a modest single engine prop. Seafire, Sea Hurricane or Martlet probably. Have to see what the stash throws at me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good morning TonyOD A single engine prop aircraft seems a very good way to join this Gb and Seafire and you can't be wrong with any of the followings Sea Hurricane or Martlet Best Regards Patrice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vppelt68 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 I´m glad that Dennis´ @Corsairfoxfouruncle Kittyhawk build reminded me of my trio of those delicious Special Hobby P-40:s I failed to finish at their STGB last year. This is a perfect and thematically appropriate place to unofficially finish them along their twin engined German adversaries, and maybe sneak in a pic of their progress too among the Ju 88 build pics . No way I´d ever want to have them in the Gallery. But, a one man undercover Commonwealth MTO P-40 KUTA? V-P 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy does it, I think! My Dragon Rapide is a slow job, and I'm also doing the Heller Classic GB. I'm in danger of getting stuck in WIP hell!

GREG DESTEC Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Arrrrrrgh 😆 I promised myself I would give GBs a rest after the He 111 STGB was done as I have participated in a lot this year. However seeing all the great projects lining up I am very tempted to join in anyway 😜! Plenty of options in the stash. I'm off to have a rummage.... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dansk Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Hi guys can anyone help me out with this? i ‘m considering building a 1/32 p-51d mustang from the stash for this but i need the correct decals if so. i know that The Tuskegee Airmen red tails qualify for this GB - but does anyone know - are there any other p-51d squadrons that i can get decals for that operated in the MTO? P.s. i only want to source decals from europe (japan and the US goods no matter how small are really heavily taxed on import) thanks for the help in advance if you can 🙏👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Law Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Seen as there is already a Ju 88C-4 planned here i might do something completely different. A 1/48 Do 17z which was captured at one point. I have the decals already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 1/48 Do 17z which was captured at one point. I have the decals already. There's always room for two or even more C-4:s Greg! The Do 17 options for the MTO are surprisingly limited. The major use by Luftwaffe took place during the captures of Greece and Crete, later in the war only a Staffel strength of Dorniers were used and mostly in convoy escort duties.

Greg Law Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Yes you are right. However there is one that is recorded and photographed. This was located in Libya. I have the decals for it. I have started a tread on it. I will add more info tomorrow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Masters Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Quick search...I have a Gauntlet from Egypt, 1940; a Potez 25 from Greece in 1941; a Breda 65 from Libya; a Curtiss Warhawk from Tunisia...I have yet to look in the Spitfire box. I could leap frog this GB and the Vietnam GB and have a fun autumn! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
