Enzo the Magnificent Posted May 31, 2022 Share Posted May 31, 2022 I'm already doing my own version of this GB. I have four Tempests and two Typhoons in progress. Although outside the scope of this GB I'm just about to kick off with three Hurricanes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shouldn’t that be “for this potential GB” or “if this GB gets through the Bunfight?”? Or is Lord Matrix hinting he’s made his mind up and making an Executive Decision that this one gets to be a GB without going through the Bunfight?

Rob S Posted June 23, 2022 Author Share Posted June 23, 2022 (edited) Now I’ll have to channel Churchill : We have fought to come up with the idea of the GB.

Roland Pulfrew Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Just in case anyone needs to buy a Tempest for this GB, this from a FB page. I don’t need another one. No, I don’t. No, no, no. 😇 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Col. Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Oh, hello... ..wonder if I can convince this to fit the old Heller kit in my stash or if I'll be 'forced' to buy another Tempest kit? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tentacles Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 I've got all of the Eduard & KP Tempests mentioned on this page, so I wonder if I should have a go at this for my first group build. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robert Stuart Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Daft question; Why isn't this a STGB? a) The airframes were lineal descendants from the Tornado. b) The Sopwith descendants GB could include these types. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're different airframes, that would be like saying a Mirage GB should be an STGB, but a Mirage IIIC is nothing like a Mirage F.1 and the only similarity between a Mirage 5 and a Mirage 2000 is the delta wing layout. 13 minutes ago, Robert Stuart said: b) The Sopwith descendants GB could include these types.

CliffB Posted October 26, 2022 Share Posted October 26, 2022 I'll be away for most of the bunfight, so won't be able to obsessively follow every twist and turn this year . That's probably a good thing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
