Excellent! Any excuse to build a Phantom has to be good.

Welcome aboard! Another Phantom is always a good thing

I've got a decent number of candidates that would go nicely in this, plus I'm enjoying the ww2 twins. Happy to stick my name on this and do some post ww2 jets to go with the props. As usual, picking what to do first will be the hardest part 😁

Welcome to the GB, I think narrowing down the list of possible builds to just one or two is going to be tricky for all of us.

Another question, if I may. I take it that 'operational', means 'entered squadron or commercial service', prototypes and test vehicles need not apply.

 

I'm thinking of TSR.2 specifically (having just revisited XR220) but it covers a lot of other types too.

Welcome :) Given the beautiful models you've built for the WW2 Twins, I'm looking forward to seeing what you can do with some later aircraft if this one makes the cut.

You're quite right on the service requirements, Rob. Having said that, I'm running the Project Cancelled GB that starts in a couple of months, and a TSR-2 would be VERY welcome there :D

I would say that you are right with that Rob, prototypes of aircraft that went on to see service would be fine but research and development aircraft or failed projects are out of the scope of the GB.

Thanks James, that's greatly appreciated and very motivating to get at least the second of those actually finished 😁

Very much enjoying the WW2 twins GB so count me in for this one too. Plenty choices in the stash but off the top of my head I have a Su-24 and F-15I waiting for an excuse to be built 😅

Welcome to the GB Keith and Luke. Don't worry Keith as you have lots of time to get something suitable. Nice choices Luke, a Ukrainian Fencer would be a great choice,

Only one away from the magic number now!

Let's get this show on the road!!!  What is the next step to scheduling it and making it happen?

The vote will happen starting in November. Once the voting is done the hosts of the winning builds and single type builds along with Enzo figure out the dates for next year.

Please add me to the list.

 

No idea what I build, but will find/buy something.
