Roland Pulfrew Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Sign me up. I only have one Luftwaffe twin in the stash, a Ta-154 Moskito (well only one if I exclude the He-219 that's sat on the shelf of doom), and I've been looking for a reason to build it for some time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JOCKNEY Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 Quick question, if you were to build a French plane in Vichy colours would it be OK in this GB, or the Allies Twin GB or would I have to start a 3rd, "Sitting on the Fence" Twin GB ? Cheers Pat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArnoldAmbrose Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Gidday Pat aka @JOCKNEY, I believe Vichy French aircraft actually attacked HMS Sheffield off Gibraltar. In my book that would make them an 'enemy' if I were aboard the Shiny Sheff. But I don't know if Vichy France was part of the definition of 'Axis". The GB leader has the decision I guess.

vppelt68 Posted January 5 Author Share Posted January 5 I think only the French stick to believing the Vichy was 100% neutral. In Europe, I would only count Ireland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland as sitting on the fence. V-P 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Thanks Gents I suppose you could build an Italian aircraft with one paint scheme and decals in this GB then the same aircraft with later paint scheme and alternative decals in the Allied twin GB for later on in the war?

Cheers Pat Yes I'd take that as such. Also, for example, shouldn't Finnish aircraft post September -44, that were turned against the Germans in the Lapland War, also be included in the Allied GB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the repeat if this has already been discussed. Regards, Jeff. Thanks Jeff, we have indeed discussed this with James! We regard that as the last possible option, though, as both subjects deserve their own group builds. There are many Britmodellers that would like to participate in both, and four months may not be enough to build two Twins. Thus, it would be optimal to have both, separate group builds and schedule them in the calendar so that they wouldn't overlap at all. So, I hope many of us join the list and remember to VOTE if we make it to the Bunfight . V-P 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
81-er Posted January 27 Share Posted January 27 I've stuck a post asking those signed up for the Allied Twins to sign up for this as well, hopefully it'll get us a bit closer to the double-act making it through James 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
