10 days to Group Build #16

[Crunch]

I'll jump in on this, as my first GB...... Will be a late entry though, as I have an interstate work trip the first 2 weeks of November and a bucketload of paperwork to do after... Then 4 days leave with some serious fishing time booked in.

Probably won't see me until first week of December!!

Can someone school me on entry requirements... Do I need to register etc first or just enter the comp when I'm ready? I had a looksie at the rules but couldn't find anything....

Just enter, showing the Category and other details as published in the rules. Please also look at the photo requirements, and please post pics by up-loading direct to the forum, and not via one of those irritating and time-consuming image hosting sites.

In My Humble Opinion, PM's are not for the purpose of Browbeating...................
It's a sly way of what is commonly referred to as peer pressure, or bullying......
If it cannot be said in the thread! IT SHOULD NOT BE SAID AT ALL!

Plane and simple.
But this Is just MHO.

I was wondering the same Charles! Unless it's Woljags entry, and Bill has the scale wrong?

 

[woljags]

too much detail in a thread for me Terry

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Charles, you build YOUR MODEL the way YOU WANT...please stick with it, I love seeing your work!

Am in total agreement.

Bill.... what on earth are you talking about ???

Has to be the Vickers Virginia Charles, and what a build it would be.

 

[N4521U]

The Vickers Virginia......

 

[Wayne Little]

ready to rock and roll....!

 

[tigerdriver]

I'm hoping to have a dabble with a spanish civil war I-16 , if you will have me

 

[ccheese]

Still debating..... The balsa F3F-2 will be such a challenge. Thirty-three ribs in the upper wing, 21 in the lower and well over 20 in the fuselage. The landing gear will be a pain in the arse...

Aw, don't make us beg!

Not my intention... Most have voiced an opinion.

I will be doing an Airfix new mold kit Swordfish mkI in March 1939, just a hair before the war.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Nice one KoJo, look forward to it. Only one day to go!

 

[N4521U]

One sleep.............. Tomorrow we post!

 

[A4K]

Nice choices guys!

Checked everything I have which would fit the build criteria... possible move dictates a K.I.S.S policy.

First build:

-PZL P.11c (RPM 1:72). Aircraft '10', Polish 161 Fighter Squadron, early 1939 (Techmod decals)
