Speckled Jim Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Welcome aboard Lads! Graham dont worry there's plenty to choose from so It can be hard. Bus Driver look forward to see an air atlantique model! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speckled Jim Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 Yup welcome rich, I've never seen the Dart modelled so that'll be an interesting build! But yea it comes under this category. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Well mine will either be Finnair and something with an Aussie flavour... QANTAS, Ansett or RAAF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxidad Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 My mojo returneth! Even though I have several started models on the bench, I am getting through them, albeit slowly. By the time this GB gets started, I hope I'll be straining at the lead...I have Italeri's Spooky in the stash. It might be a nice easy build to getting the juices flowing more freely.

Kev1n Posted February 10, 2011 Share Posted February 10, 2011 either TWA in a polished bare metal scheme or RAF in camo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speckled Jim Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 I'll start marking up people planned builds later today, Maxidad, welcome to the build! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul J Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Seeing as I've just completed the TCA DC-3 in 1/72nd and effectively used up my stock in that scale, my entries will be 1/144th. One will most likely be an old favourite that I used to see alot in the late 60's belonging to Morton Air Services. A possible second in a nother civvie scheme too. Note to self- Must stock up with more 72nd Daks! Paul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Killingholme Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 If the timing fits against other projects I would be interested in building a DC-3 I have had in the stash since it was given me as a child. I would probably go for an ex-KLM DC3 in wartime Lufthansa colours. Will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowmk9 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I'm quite interested in this GB. I think anyone who seriously loves aviation modelling should build at least one Dak in their time, it is such an iconic aircraft! So many schemes to choose from that at the moment I can't decide right now, but I've got a few months to think on it. I'll likely be building the Italeri 1/72 kit.

Speckled Jim Posted April 1, 2011 Share Posted April 1, 2011 Daz, Rowan, Welcome aboard! and Rowan I have to agree the Dakota is one of the most Iconic aircraft that ever have flown. And Daz me to She looks very nice at the moment saw her flying overhead at the Armed forces day Parade in Glasgow, so hard not to look up at her while marching! Then ran down to Jamiesons and bought my first ever Dak. However heard rumors that she's bring repainted for this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
