Paul821 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 See last post for update Amended the rules to allow Pat ( aka @JOCKNEY ) to include his Rescue Launch Prompted by a discussion in the current Anything But Injection GB, I put this proposal before you all for consideration. The GB would be for anything found on an airfield owned or used by an air force, airline or airfield etc,, except man-made flying objects. So people, vehicles, buildings, boats etc.. can all be included, civil and military. Any scale and any modelling medium allowed. I admit I have items planned that would fit this theme for at least 3 GB's this year (excluding Blitz builds and KUTA) but I will certainly have some over for 2022 should the GB get the required number and through the bunfight.

Corsairfoxfouruncle Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 🙋🏻♂️ Oooh Oooh me please can I join ? I need a WW2 control tower. I also need revetments of all types, including German, RAF E type (think thats what they're called), and PSP type. I also need a SWPA style Maintenance shed for photo’s of all my theatre type aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnl42 Posted March 28, 2021 Share Posted March 28, 2021 Sign me up! The stash can provide 1/48 kits for a Nissen Hut, Albion 3-Point refueller, CCKW fuel tanker, CCKW bomb truck, bomb trailers, Minneapolis Moline NTX tractor, and Jeep APU. Some recent builds.

Rob S Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 So this would include any car tested by Top Gear on their Test Track (as it’s on an Airfield)? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Poultney Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Do fire dump aircraft count as non-flying objects or is it once a plane always a plane? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think as long as the plane is in a state it can never fly again it could be included. That then raises the question of the TSR-2's at Shoeburyness that were restored would that be allowed?

Marklo Posted March 29, 2021 Share Posted March 29, 2021 Well I do have an antiaircraft gun I’m planning on getting around to eventually so count me in on that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Aircraft carrier count as a "mobile airfield"? Could be an opportunity to build some flight deck/hangar deck gear.....tractors, huffers, EPUs, bomb carts, crash & salvage equipment..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helios16v Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 Go ahead and put me down then. I've got some flight deck gear I could build for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theplasticsurgeon Posted April 20, 2021 Share Posted April 20, 2021 A reason to build a lot of this. and possibly an excuse for this Count me in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted April 24, 2021 Share Posted April 24, 2021 Would the RAF rescue launch count for this one ? Cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one reason I have made the suggestion for this thread.

Tim R-T-C Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 I'd be well in for this one - I have an unhealthy (for my wallet) love of airfield accessories - somewhere I have a storage box full of Eastern Express airport vehicles and airstairs as well as a stash-load of Brengun airfield accessories which are certainly small... I've also got a load of whitemetal military vehicles I use to enhance airfield vignettes, which I could easily make the focus of a build, like these RAF rescue vehicles. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helios16v Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 A little bump. A GB to build add-ons for your other GBs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin W Posted June 8, 2021 Share Posted June 8, 2021 Having parted with a lot of dosh over the years I have a number of items in the stash which will qualify for a GB like this. They've not been built yet so I'm up to join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather Kay Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 Not sure how I missed this. I’m always up for ground support equipment to act as set dressing when taking photos of my model flying things. Add my name, do! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kallisti Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I've got a 1:48 Standard Tilly from Accurate Armour I'd like to build at some point so count me in and I'm sure I've got some other gubbins that would quality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mjwomack Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Time for a nudge. Otherwise I'm left with another kit I brought for a GB that didn't make the grade 😳 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul821 Posted November 16, 2021 Author Share Posted November 16, 2021 As once again things that fly and AFV's have dominated the GB's for 2023, I thought I'd give all other genres of modelling a chance. For 2023 I am now proposing a GB that can include anything that cannot be posted in "Aircraft Modelling" or "AFV's". I will reset the participants back to zero and see how things go. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
