GB 17 what are you thinking

[fubar57]

A Cat looks good in anything, the B-24, however.....

Had a quick look at B-24/F-7 photos recon pictures. I have a 1/48 D&J. It's not going to happen.

I was thinking a RB-57 version with the really long wings. Will have to do a bit of research as to kit availability and records of plane, unit, crew. I have to stop watching you tube videos. I saw the a/c last night and thought what a cool plane and maybe a good kit. Time will tell:

It was assigned to the 58 WRS at Kirkland AFB, NM

1:72 RAAF 'bou that I've been putting off for a couple of years. Not that I don't want to do it, I can't wait, but I want to do it justice and don't trust myself!

I am assuming transport includes all eras? Otherwise, I'll have to buy something!!

 

[Crunch]

Hmmmm... So I just looked back at the listings thread and saw "of ww2" attached to the end of transport/recon... Bugger, back to the think tank.

 

[Crimea_River]

Methinks there will be clarification needed......

I have entries ready that fit the time frame indicated, but I wonder if we could loosen them up to include cold war stuff. I personally like to see the variety of aircraft that people come up with.

 

[Lucky13]

I'm good with that!

After buying too many kits that Don't fill the bill............
it's a 1/48th F6F-5P from the Yorktown........

 

[Rogi]

hmmmm.....are we opening it up to allow the Sabre and the Mig-15?

 

[ccheese]

I have a Beechcraft staggerwing executive transport, and a Arado 196 observation aircraft. And a possible surprise entry.

Both sound good to me !!! Ooooooh... I like surprises !

I was going to do an O1-E "Bird-Dog"... but that may not come to pass

Got some books on the Hellcat if you need some info Bill

Only if it pertains to the 5P photo equiped version

Lookin forward to what you do with that, I have never seen one!

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Think I'll chip in with one for each camp, a 56 Squadron Meatbox (Meteor) and if time a Junkers Ju52.

 

[Lucky13]

If I can find inspiration and plans to that P-38F-4-LO, I'll do Peterson's #98, otherwise I'll do a Coastal Command PBY Catalina!

 

[Vic Balshaw]

What sort of plans are you looking for Jan, asymmetric. Also check out the other GB17 thread started by Bill, I posted some stuff for you.


Edit. I see you have just been there.

Your a genius Jan, hmm I could probobly do a Japanese Catalina for this one (keeping to the theme, and quenching my Foreign Aircraft in Japanese colors thirst mu hahahah!!!)

 

[parsifal]

Ive missed the deadline for Build 15, missed build 16 altogether, so i am not going to make promises i cant keep. But I would really like to do an A-4 in 1/72 scale without the dorsal hump

 

[fubar57]

I am thinking I'm gonna wait for some officialdom to step in here. I've got a 1/48 Typhoon that can be converted to a photo/recon bird or a 1/48 U-2 Senior Span if all hell breaks loose.

The Officialdom of the almighty bigwigs, the supreme big cheeses, the Grand Poobahs of the Lodge, the fat cats of the litterbox, the head honchos, high men on the totem pole, high-muck-a-mucks and the big men on campus.......aaaaand breathe!

Well, with a bit of luck!
