Fifer54 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I like this idea, mainly because Malta is one of my favourite holiday destinations! After listing all those aircraft, would model ships (Ark Royal, anyone?) be eligible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philp Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 There are several aircraft I would be interested in doing but do you want to limit it to the air side. A lot of ships used Malta as a base or operations or for support, not counting the resupply convoys. Also several items of an armored interest including Matildas, Universal Carriers, 40mm AA, and numerous support vehicles (all in that neat Malta brick wall camo).

maltadefender Posted June 20, 2010 Author Share Posted June 20, 2010 Looking good thanks for the interest guys! Can't believe I forgot the Martin Maryland on the list!

robw_uk Posted June 21, 2010 Share Posted June 21, 2010 not got a stash but am sure I could find something to buy and build.... if it could wait til after August tho so I can get my hols out the way first (plus the Hellcat I am buuilding)... Hmmmm just spotte dthe Wildcat is on the list - perhaps the sister kit to the one I am building now would be possible (plus I am about to read a book about a FAA carrier pilot - something like "on and off a carrier"..... so could try to build a specific plane flown by a person I have read about) Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are markings for a Martlet in the Operation Pedestal 1/72 set or the Wildcat would be the pale grey jobbies on the USS Wasp when she was delivering Spitfires.

maltadefender Posted June 27, 2010 Author Share Posted June 27, 2010 Is this OK ? Spot on! JG26 operated E-trops, the Revell re-release has the right decals for it I believe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CliffB Posted June 28, 2010 Share Posted June 28, 2010 Sounds interesting. Only thing in my stash is an ancient Italeri (or indeed Italaerei, as it was spelt then), He111 H-6. One decal option is for a sand/green torpedo bomber from 2/KG 26, 'Mediterraneo 1942-43'. Would this be OK? Cliff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robw_uk Posted July 12, 2010 Share Posted July 12, 2010 is this a confirmed GB? About to start something new (when I buy something) so if it is on the offing I will buy something to fit this... cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonymousDFB1 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 No sorry it's not a confirmed GB and if it was it wouldn't make it onto the GB calender for another 18 months The GB calender is fully booked for the remainder of this year and all of next with four GBs running at any one time.
