vppelt68 Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Well, as we're just about to start the Saab 35 Draken STGB this coming weekend, and the single type group build proposals for 2024 look awfully few so far... Let's try to set this up! V-P vppelt68 (host) helios16v Marklo theplasticsurgeon Col.

Marklo Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Well as I’ll soon have a Draken in the collection it would be lonely without a Viggen. Just a thought but a Saab GB would also be nice too. 3

Enzo the Magnificent Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Special Hobby kit built for the Nordic 2 GB in 2020 Same kit, ringing the changes. The Heller kit... 8
Col. Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Both! Viggen STGB first then an anything SAAB(including Scania?) GB please. 1

Col. Posted March 2, 2023 Posted March 2, 2023 Just now, Enzo the Magnificent said: You want to build a lorry, dontcha? Just keeping our options open 1
vppelt68 Posted March 3, 2023 Author Posted March 3, 2023 Yes indeed, Saab and Scania went hand in hand for years. I updated the title and poll. Now we can be certain that @JeroenS will join us too 🙂 2

Well now that I think of it when I was in college a friend of mine had a Saab 900 looked ugly to me but the acceleration…… But tbh I’d love to build a Grippen and a Tunnan. A little research ( don’t you just live the inter web) show’s a Nicely long list too. Military aircraft Saab 17 Saab 18 Saab 21 Saab 21R Saab 29 Tunnan Saab 32 Lansen Saab 37 Viggen Saab JAS 39 Saab 105 Saab 340 Boeing T-7 Red Hawk BAE Systems Tempest Cancelled military aircraft projects Saab 36 Saab 38 Civilian aircraft Saab Safir 91B Saab 90 Scandia Saab 91 Safir Saab 340 Saab 2000 Experimental aircraft Saab 210 Saab/Linköping University Generic Future Fighter. Unmanned aerial vehicles Saab Skeldar 4

Marlin Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 So it's a SAAB and/or Scania GB for 2024 then. /Bosse 1

trickyrich Posted March 3, 2023 Posted March 3, 2023 I had been thinking of dragging up that old chestnut, the Nordic GB....... Nordic III Ragnor Goes Hunting Bear!!! 🇺🇦 ........ but just haven't had the time, plus not sure if that idea is starting to get old. Arrr yes I do have 2 1/32nd Viggen beasties, and probably by that time a 1/32nd Draken one as well. So I'm in which ever way you go. 4
Col. Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 By my rough count that makes for nine of us keen to see @vppelt68's SAAB/Scania GB happen. That's not including @Enzo the Magnificent who, as GB Overlord, cannot and will not show bias but we all know will build at least six models during it 2 1

I haven't voted so that makes it 11 interested so far. 2
helios16v Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 I like 'em both. So which ever way the wind blows I'll be covered. If Saab-Scania goes forth, I might be forced to drag out the Scania @JeroenS tempted me to acquire. 2
modelling minion Posted March 4, 2023 Posted March 4, 2023 I have the Special Hobby double boxing of the 1/72 Viggen so could be persuaded to take part, actually the only SAAB built product in the stash at the minute. 🇺🇦 1
