Not a judge, but I certainly hope this isn't restricted to military types! Considering a Supermarine S.6B or GAL Monospar in civvy scheme time permitting.
It was my understanding that anything that flew between 1914 and 1939 was fair game, I certainly hope it's not just military only, there are so many cool aircraft from that time...
I don't have anything suitable in limited stash so will give this one a miss. Looking forward to GB17 next Feb I have a choice of two Me262 or a Fieseler Storch 156C

Plenty of time to hit the hobby store, '14 to'39 covers alot of stuff! But if nothing else, keep an eye on some of us less tallented (Me) and give advice.
Looks i managed to win an Academy 1/48 I-16 Type 10 from fleabay for the much more reasonable sum of £8.05 !
So Spanish Civil War here I come . If I am feeling cocky I may even try and add the rope they used to retract the undercarriage ( i assume they let gravity take care of deployment )

I've got an balsa Cessna O-1E "Bird dog" in my stash for GB #17. I think that qualifies as an "observer" aircraft. Which prompts a question: Does the Lockheed P-38 qualify for the heavy hitters GB #18 ??? I've got a Comet Model Airplane Co. balsa P-38 with a 36 inch wingspan I'm itching to get my fingers into.

Charles, I was looking at doing a Bird Dog as well, but decided on a jet for a change on #17, so have an F9F-5P from CVA-10 USS Yorktown. I wanted to do a swept wing Cougar, but no one makes one in 48th, now what's That all about.....
And Paul, I knew you weren't fishing, but you do great work.
