I'm still thinking about doing the A-10, but I have an F-16 in the stash that I was going to build back in Group Build 14. The only thing that was done on it was painting the seat. If this if alright with everyone I'd like to start in with it again.

 

[Airframes]

No problem Glenn, go for it.

[CATCH 22]

I have a general question about this GB: are the a/cs to be manufactured after 1946 (what essentially covers the general idea of "Post-WW II aviation") or are they simply to be used in this period, e.g. "Soccer war" Mustangs and Corsairs or Biafran war Texans or Katangan Harvards?

 

[Crimea_River]

I'd say you can enter pre 1946 designs as long as the subject scheme represents use in 1946 or later.

 

[Airframes]

Basically. anything post WW2 - which would include WW2 types, but, in the spirit of the GB, would see a vast range of military aircraft types.
So, for example, a 1946 Spitfire Mk. XVI, to a Eurofighter Typhoon II, or a C-47 to a C-5 Galaxsey.
If in doubt, just ask .

Thanks, guys!
So the period of use is the answer.

Even whirlybirds!
Flapping rotor type aircraft.
Helicopters!!!!!!

 

[N4521U]

this GB seems to be bringing out all those bunsen burner builders!!!!
Soooo many.

The only people who don't like the A-10 are the Air Force brass. They have been trying to get rid of it since it came out!

....and those on the receiving end, of her fury!

I'm still vasalating, I have a huge collection of post WWII aircraft, I just found another couple I might be interested in, Kinetics EA-6B was released by Italeri wih a very large (five aircraft) decal set, and I have a bunch of aftermarket for it.

I also found my Kinetics A-6A/E which I have more markings for than they made real aircraft (I think).

I may be on too much O2, not really sure. A-7B/D/and E and F-8's out the wazoo and 33 F-4 Phantom II's in the closet. Heck I have 16 F-16's and 17 F-15's. Am I a horder?

Obviously, she needs to be a USS Coral Sea CV-43 bird!
