hmmm why aren't you!!! Thought you'd be another one I'd have to go looking for! :fight:

 

All great choices, any would be nice to see built. I'll probably go with the Draken, but the Lansen would be an interesting choice for me.

Does the opinion of someone who hasn't actually completed a model yet count? I'm a big fan of Scandywegian planes, could definitely go a bog standard Draken or Viggen!

Of course ;)

It is time to complete one obviously!!

There is/was(?) the Flygvapenövning 19 (= Air force exercise -19) going on in the Northern Sweden and Finland. Swedes and Finns are working together as both defending and attacking forces, with Gripens and Hornets in both "teams". A Finnish aviation photographer shares some stunning pics from Rovaniemi AB. Not just aircraft pics... how do you like this?

Count one more in for this build. I’m thinking perhaps a 1/48 Danish starfighter.

Cool. You thinking grey or green? Say both. Please say both :pray:

Not sure yet. A single seat weathered grey would be my first choice 🤔

Nice first choice. Have to admit that while I do like the weathered green scheme commonly seen on models of the F-100, Hunter, Starfighter and Draken in Danish service I also think the grey scheme looks different and all the better for that.

Could be quite interesting right?

The weathered grey fueslage, burnt / bare metals at the rear, bare metal tip tanks and off white wings.

Lovely :wub: 

Have to confess I'm now searching for a set of decals to suit the 32nd scale Hasegawa kit in my stash due to our conversation here :lol:

welcome to the ever growing list Paul and great choice as well.

 

Either colour would look awesome, I mean it's a Starfighter, it can't help but look awesome!

Count me in!

I wanted the 30th place in the list but I can't wait any longer. :bear:

 

Iceland is the hard one. The only one I have in my stash is the

Hughes MD500 from the Icelandic Coast guard

https://www.scalemates.com/kits/profiline-7013-md-500d--128658

 

I tried to find an aircraft that was in service in all the main air forces.

I found these but there must be some more

Tiger Moth, all four

Fokker C.V, all four

C-47, all four

you just missed by just 8 minutes!  :rage:   A group of four of the same aircraft in their seperate nation colours would look awesome!
