Bertie McBoatface Posted April 6, 2022 Share Posted April 6, 2022 7 hours ago, LorenSharp said: Interesting idea Bertie. I had just considered aircraft spanning the many decades. But on reflection of your suggestion, I'm going to modify this some. ANY Equipment on land or sea used in direct support FAA , it's predecessors, or successors is eligible. I hope this doesn't get too unwieldly. I think I'm going to need a co-host. Ohh, that’s given me an idea for a build, not necessarily in this GB. I bet someone makes a kit of those field guns that the FAA and the other two teams race up and down Earl’s Court with each year. The hardest sport in the world, some say.

Ngantek Posted April 12, 2022 Share Posted April 12, 2022 I'm new to the forum and have never done a group build, but given 3/4 of my stash is FAA, I'm certainly keen for this one to happen! I'm in. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have questions you can D/message or do this @Corsairfoxfouruncle to get someones attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenSharp Posted April 19, 2022 Author Share Posted April 19, 2022 Welcome aboard Ngantek! You are added to our little band of mischief makers. Hopefully if we make it through the Bunfight we'll be able to help you thin your FAA stash down a tad.

FAA in all it's colours conditions and ages from the dim and distant past, to the present. Over 100 years of history waiting with bated breath to be represented in all it's Glory. All I can say more is Vote for the FAA of your Choice. But VOTE! 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely RCN but open to ideas as of right now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyOD Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 @Corsairfoxfouruncle I have a XVII lined up for this one, and a II (MTO) and a XV (Aeronavale) for SSD, inshallah. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grey Beema Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Yup I’ll be there with something, I might do another Hellcat, a Fulmar, a Seafire with a few extra bits or maybe something more modern, Sea Fury ot Seafire 47. Not sure yet but I will be playing.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafwaffe Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 Can I please sign up? I’ll even vote for the GB too! I thought I’d put my name down… now I’ve gotten through 2022 and the addition of a 1/1 scale human and finishing uni I have a good feeling I’ll get some building in at last in 2023. I feel in urge to build something with a nautical avian name like fulmar or skua or the like… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming in at a nice round 37 5/8(actually 38) This will be a bumper GB if it gets through the Bun Fight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LorenSharp Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 In fact at 38 I think it might be prudent if I could ask, cajole, plead, con beg one my my astute colleagues in the BM Metaverse , especially if they are educated in the FAA, to co-host this little clam bake.

LorenSharp Posted November 1, 2022 Author Share Posted November 1, 2022 I have 4 I would like to try and get done should this make it. A Trumpeter Supermarine Seafang, Airfix Hawker SeaFury, a Dynavector Fairey Gannet or Sea Hornet. The last 2 if I'm really off the deep end.
