TEMPESTMK5 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Good morning I don't know if it has been done before but I would like to propose a GB for the early Us jet Fighters such as : P-59A/B Airacomet - Bell F-80 and T -33 Shooting Star – Lockheed F-84 Thunderjet – Republic F-86 Sabre – North American F-89 Scorpion – Northrop F-94 Starfire – Lockheed F3D Skyknight - Douglas F4D Skyray - Douglas F9F Cougar - Grumman F9F Panther - Grumman F11F Tiger - Grumman FH Phantom - McDonnell F2H Banshee - McDonnell F3H Demon - McDonnell F6U Pirate - Chance Vought F7U Cutlass - Chance Vought As some of these aircraft have been used by other countries than the USA I think that we can extend this Gb to all their users around the world ..

Chrisj2003 Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Patrice, yes please, I have all of the Air Force models in the stash apart from the very ugly Starfire. But maybe not for 2022; I think we should put our votes behind Century Series GB; and I am hoping for a 75th anniversary GB in September 2022.

Evil_Toast_RSA Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Well, this is right up my alley. Sign me up! Can do a Scorpion, Sabre and Demon now. Have my eyes on a Thunderjet, Shooting Star and Panther. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Apologies Patrice To return to the GB, although this isn't my particular area of interest. I have in the stash: 1. Airfix Sabre 2. Frog RN Phantom. No not both Please put me on the list. Actually I think I've got some strange vacform conversions for these type of aircraft somewhere, was it Airmodel that made them ? Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevehnz Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 Hi Patrice, yes please, put me down for this, I have a worrying number of the types in your list. Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trickyrich Posted September 8, 2021 Share Posted September 8, 2021 arrrr @JOCKNEY I think you have the wrong Phantom in mind. Patrice is referring to the original FH Phantom and not the F-4 Phantom II. Count me in, I has a couple of suitable suspects; 1/32nd F9F-5 Panther 1/48th F2H-3 Banshee (Big Banjo) 1/48th F3H-2M Panther 1/48th FJ-4B Fury ....... and no I will not either!!!! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wez Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 Patrice, I was thinking about proposing something like this just yesterday but was going to propose 1st generation jets up to the Sabre and MiG-15 (so to include Meteor, Vampire, Me-262 etc), but as you've got this in first... ... count me in!

theplasticsurgeon Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 I've got an Academy F-84 Thunderjet, that's vouched for a RepublicGB - if it gets through the bunfight. and a Tamiya F-4D Skyray. I'm in. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good morning Wez By proposing this GB I was thinking that it would complement perfectly the Century Fighter Gb (if it pass the Bunfight) but your idea is very good too ... Anyway I add your name to the list .. Best regards Patrice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marklo Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 How early can you go? I want to add an Airacomet to go with my Caproni Campini. Won’t get much more early than that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
