Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 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. This will be take two for this. 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. A list of qualified aircraft. Seversky SEV-3 Single-engine three-seat amphibian Seversky P-35 1935 Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft Seversky A8V Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft Seversky XP-41 Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft Republic P-43 Lancer Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft Republic P-44 Rocket Unbuilt single-engine single-seat propeller fighter aircraft Republic P-47 Thunderbolt Single-engine single-seat propeller fighter Republic XP-69 Unbuilt single-engine single-seat propeller fighter Republic XP-72 Prototype single-engine single-seat propeller fighter Republic RC-3 Seabee Single-engine four-seat pusher propeller amphibious aircraft Republic XF-12 Rainbow Four engine long-range reconnaissance/transport aircraft Republic F-84 Thunderjet Single-engine single-seat jet fighter-bomber Republic XF-91 Thunderceptor Single-seat jet/rocket interceptor Republic F-84F Thunderstreak Single-engine single-seat jet fighter Republic XF-103 Unbuilt single-seat jet/ramjet interceptor Republic RF-84F Thunderflash Single-engine single-seat jet reconnaissance aircraft Republic XF-84H Thunderscreech Prototype single-engine single-seat turboprop fighter Republic F-105 Thunderchief Single-engine single-seat jet fighter-bomber Fairchild Republic A-10 Thunderbolt II 1972 Twin-engine single-seat jet ground attack aircraft Republic-Ford JB-2 (1944) pulse-jet pilotless guided missile, an American copy of the German V-1 flying bomb Of course I believe reini has offered to co-host ?

vppelt68 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 It's more than 40 years since I built a Matchbox P-47 so please add me to the list, Dennis. This time I'd rather build a Tamiya razorback, though. V-P 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim R-T-C Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Well whenever I open my Eduard drawer I'm confronted by a stack of Bubbletops, so I'm certainly in! Also got a couple of Thuds in the stash too. Would love someone to release the P-43 in scale but sadly Dora Wings seem to have stopped downsizing to 144th 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so it couldn't be to hard to back date that to a P-43 ? It’s very similar shapes just a wee bit smaller in all dimensions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stefan Buysse Posted December 3, 2020 Share Posted December 3, 2020 Hi, I'd be interested in participating. I've always considered the A-10 as a member of the Republic family. I'm not sure what I'll build for this one (we're talking about 2022 after all), a P-47 is highly likely. Cheers, Stefan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zebra Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Add me to the list Dennis. Nothing in the stash that would be suitable right now, but if it gets through the poll it might prompt me to buy an XF-12 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
