vppelt68 Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 @Giorgio N as the original GB "owner" and @Rabbit Leader as the "They Also Serve" Host of The Year 2020, please rule this these kits´ eligibility, please. They are the F-16:s I started some years ago in their STGB but miserably failed to finish (surprise, surprise!). Here are some pics of their current state. I have decals for Norwegian, Danish, Dutch, Belgian and Portuguese AM:s and shop for Italian B ADF decals, found in some Italeri kits. So, definitely "Yanks Abroad". They are all Revell 1:72 kits, 1 x A, 1 x B, 2 x MLU and 2 x C. I mixed up parts molded in various colours to get that "Matchbox feeling" . Fuselage subassemblies started. All will be displayed "legs up". Some assembled and painted subassemblies. This is not the only box of parts for these kits... Plus I have a Hasegawa weapons and pods set I need too. Best regards, V-P 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabbit Leader Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Well "if" I was the host, I would declare all these F-16's as being well under the 25% eligibility rule. It would be great to see all these built up in NATO colours V.P. Cheers.. Dave (the non committing host) 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 See we knew you'd have to accept the position eventually! It'll make a man out of you.....or drive you to more tinnies! Just think of it as "tag", now you just need to find someone else..........he say's running away! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giorgio N Posted December 4, 2019 Author Share Posted December 4, 2019 Nice group @vppelt68 ! Knowing the Revell kit, these to me all look well below the 25% limit, as really there has been very little assembly done. And of course all subjects would be eligible as US designed/built aircraft in foreign service 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first two will also work for the Scandi GB Plus, if you want a little longer, there's the option of working on them under the unofficial year-long 90s NATO section in the 'They Also Serve' GB Edited December 4, 2019 by Col.

Wasn' t that one of those Small Wars? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
