Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 (edited) Hello one and all... So I did a scan back to 2015 and didn't see anything for this subject. So I’m proposing a Group build for all things Republic Aviation. This would include the Original Seversky Aircraft Company and its aircraft. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Republic_Aviation Even if an aircraft is not on this list, if you or anyone can show a Republic/Seversky connection thats reasonable I will allow it. Many famous types and prototypes have born the name of Republic Aircraft. If anyone is interested please let me know ? You can build a P-35 or an 2pa in Japanese markings. That or maybe an Seversky AT-12 Guardsman. Then there are of course the P-43 Lancer and P-47 Thunderbolt. Or maybe you fancy a jet, there are of course the Thunderjets, Thunderstreaks, and Thunderflashes. Then last but definitely not least there is the Thud or Thunderchief. Standard rules would apply of course. Of course I’m always looking for a co-host or two ? If interested please raise your hand and be accepted into the job. 1. Corsairfoxfouruncle (Host) 2.

TEMPESTMK5 Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 Good morning Dennis Very good idea , please count me in.. Patrice 1
srkirad Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 Well, it would be very nice if this GB pass through 2021 bunfight - 2021 marks 80 years from the first fligth of P-47, and 75 years from the first flight of F-84G. I had in my personal plans to build P-47 and/or F-84G in 2021, so, count me in! 1
theplasticsurgeon Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 Pledging support - I've got two Republics in my stash - this Academy Thunderjet. Edited 02 Sept 2020 - and this Italeri A-10, to be built in grey. 1
Wez Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 It would give me an excuse to finally do that F-84F I've been promising myself I'd do - so please count me in Dennis. 1
Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted January 19, 2020 Author Posted January 19, 2020 Hello @TEMPESTMK5, @srkirad, @theplasticsurgeon, & @Wez. Thank you for the interest I have added you to the list. All of them good ideas and the anniversaries are important so I do hope this makes it. Dennis 1
Arniec Posted January 19, 2020 Posted January 19, 2020 I am interested too. I have got a few that will fit the bill for this GB. Cheers,

helios16v Posted March 4, 2020 Posted March 4, 2020 I'd be game for this. I'm actually not certain I have anything at the moment...so could be an excuse to get a Thud.

Wez Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 I was having a rummage in the stash the other day, I have P-47's various, F-84E/G various, F-84F various, RF-84F various and a couple of F-105's plus loads of decals for the aforementioned so I have plenty of choices for this GB. This GB is right up @RidgeRunner street, there's a few Latin American air forces that used the P/F-47. 1
RidgeRunner Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) @Wez I have a few of Kartveli's beauties in the pile - F-47s (Latin D and N), F-84G, F-84F, RF-84F. I'm done with Thuds. I love them but they take up too much space! ..... I might be tempted to another test or research Thud, though Count me in, Dennis Martin Edited April 5, 2020 by RidgeRunner 1

RidgeRunner Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) My plans for these kits are Nicaraguan F-47N, Norwegian RF-84F, Greek F-84F, Greek F-84G and a Colombian/Ecuadorean F-47D. .... I need to keep my powder dry on the one I'd contribute to the GB. M Edited April 5, 2020 by RidgeRunner 2
RidgeRunner Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 (edited) I was promising myself an Ace of Spades 563rd TFS Thud one day, so maybe ........ Edited April 5, 2020 by RidgeRunner 1
trickyrich Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 bugger i seemed to have missed this thread when it went up.......guess you'd better sign me up to! Not too sure what I'd build, F-105, A-10, Luftwaffe F-84? Rumour has it that there's a new version of the P-43 Lancer coming out soon from Dora Wings.......will be grabbing one of those when it's released!! 1
MarkSH Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Yep sounds good, I have always wanted to do a Warthog, don’t have one in the stash but when has that ever stopped me! 1

They all sound like good options, Warthogs definitely would be welcome. Yes I'm looking at both the P-43 and P-35 from them. Dennis
Jabba Posted April 5, 2020 Posted April 5, 2020 Now that the A-10 has been mentioned I am in, as I was not sure before if this would have counted.
