That we know of!

You can add my name to the list Rich, lots of possibilities still in the stash.

Now now Craig, no need to be jealous :tease:

Must be a typo. The word “not” somehow slipped into this sentence 

It's the lack of resin dust getting to him and causing some nasty reaction to the withdrawal symptoms ;)

Been having a think on options within my stash for this one: A P-51, SAAB's J21, J29, and three J37 all for Sweden. An F-104 along with possibly an Ar-196 and F-86D for Norway. A Hawker Hunter in F.4 and/or T.7 guise as well as an F-86D and perhaps a Spitfire PR.XI for Denmark. Maybe another Hurricane for Finnland.

The Ar-196, F-86Ds, Spitfire, and Hunters all require me to source decals but we've at least a year to do so and there's a chance more kits will have joined the stash in the intervening time :) Who knows, @trickyrich might even get around to digging that mythical Draken kit out of his stash by then :shrug:

Norway did not operate the F-86D though. But you could build an F-86K.

Thanks for the clarification Nils. I'd started to investigate who used the various D/K/L types but then discovered decal availability will be the main issue deciding what options I have :(

Rich has done it again🙃 Now I want to be in the second part as well. I still have got a few Viggen's lying around, but also some WW 2 stuff from Finland. So options enough.

But first I need to finish that Draken befor part one ends in two weeks.😬

 

Cheers,

welcome Arnold, you're on the list.

 

You're right about the options....just look at the variation in the current build, and I think we're still missing some.

for this year's, pretty well unless you're a blitz builder, but for round 2 plenty of time, I'll add you to the list.

 

Oh and Happy Birthday!  :hbd:

no worries, I think there are a few in your position, practice makes perfect they say so next time you'll nail it! :D

Add my name to the list. Maybe it's finally time I built a Heller Viggen, and tried my luck again with that 4-colour camouflage scheme (... which I last attempted on the Matchbox kit in the mid-1980s).

welcome along, you're on the list.

 

I think the early 80's was when I did my first Viggen in that scheme too, and it was a matchbox one as well!

there's a wee bit of a process to go through first, we, need 30 interested members to sign up first. Then it'll go into the annual "Bum Fight" (:D) and those with the most votes, top 6 or 7 go into the following years calendar.

 

But if we get the response we did for this years then hopefully all will be good! :thumbsup:
