Rabbit Leader Posted February 27, 2020 Share Posted February 27, 2020 Good call Col. Let's hope I don't get any grand ideas (like the current Nordic GB) and attempt to build a subject from each of the qualifying nations!! For my part, I'll be in with at least some Rhodesian and South African subjects. Cheers.. Dave 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything with Springbok markings works for me Dennis and particularly a Mirage Although the Sabre is a good one too.

If it occured in Africa then it's in.

Wez Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) Yes please, count me in, @RidgeRunner build of his Gabonese Skyraider serves as great inspiration for this. Assuming this gets the numbers and then through the poll (and I can see no reason why it won't, such an appealing subject), then if you want a co-host I'm happy to throw my hat into the ring! Fancy an Alpha Jet for this one, or maybe a G-91, or an Invader, or... Edited March 10, 2020 by Wez 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Israel isn’t Africa, mate. How about venturing beyond the stream of IDF/AF builds that we see and go wild ..... how about South African? Angolan?
