The Germans made some gorgeous seaplanes!Some great suggestions there already
What about, WW2 seaplanes? Quite a lot to choose from there - Swordfish, Kingfisher, Ar 196, Zero, Sunderland, Fw 200 etc, etc.....
Please define "Cheers Greg" build? What type and era? Would this be at a bar in Bean Town?My two penneth worth:
Spitfires - All marks pre and post war including Seafires.
WW2 Eastern Front : including Finish conflict with Russia
Battle for Berlin - Night or day
Ground Attack - All eras
Nose Art - All era's
Maritime - Costal/Navy/seaplanes WW2
One trick Pony - as previously described
Early Jets - WW2 to 1950's
Cheers Greg
I agree with you and have suggested campaign or event related builds before but they (Battle for France, North of 60, etc) but they got little interest.I like the idea of the Spanish Civil war, which was a specific point in time and had a wide variety of aircraft.
It would be great to see other events like this (in the future, don't want to mess up.the spreadsheet!) for builds, like the 1939 invasion of Poland, the 1940 Greco-Italian war (Greece had a great variety of types), the Winter War between Finland and the Soviet Union or even the 1948 Arab-Israeli war, which was perhaps the last great battle with WWII aircraft.
Bill,Good golly miss molly!
Been going thru personal work stuff here, a bit of a crisis.
Hopefully it gets taken care of today, fingers crossed.

I'll have to take a look back and see whats up.
First off............ what is One Trick Pony? Mustangs????
1. No Props
2. Carrier
3. Afterlife? What The???
4. PTO
5. Zombie
6. Trainers
7. At War's End!1945-46
8. ?
Thank you for all you work on the kittyThings are slowing down alot so looks like we are nearing the end of this. With the above inputs, I've done the following:
Jock Tamson 's pick are in. With your vote for Ground Attack a/c ALL ERAS, I've opened up the theme from just WW2 Ground Attack to "All Eras" and put your vote there. I have also included your Early Jets in "No Propellers".
N4521U 's picks are in and I included the vot for "Afterlife", even with the "what the????" still in the selection. "At War's End - 1945-46" went as a vote for #40 "Aircraft Operating 1945 - 1955".
I also changed my own votes, taking my vote for "One Trick Pony" away and adding it to "Twin Engined a/c all eras".
So here's how it looks now. At the moment, we have a clean (i.e. no ties) top 8 above the red line.

So, we still have not heard from a few of our "regulars":le_steph40 , Bernhart , and Davecww1 . If you three plan to submit your picks, do it by this coming Sunday, Feb 12 please.
Likewise toAirframes (can add 7 choices to his 1), GrauGeist (can add 4 choices to his 4), PlasticHero (has one choice left), and Warbirdnutball (has one choice left). If you guys want to add votes/choices please do so by this coming Sunday, Feb 12 please.
ANY VOTES RECEIVED AFTER SUNDAY FEB 12 WILL NOT BE ADDED TO THE LIST
To everyone who has contributed, first of all thank-you for the great ideas! Secondly, I propose to put a deadline of end of day next Wednesday, Feb 15, to allow changes to your votes and to have all of your choices locked in, after which we will select our 8 finalists for the GB. As stated at the beginning, if we have a tie for the last spot we'll need to run a poll to select which theme makes the schedule so vote/change wisely! I will continue to update the list with any changes received as soon as I can so you can all see what moves are happening.

Makes it fair for the guys who submitted early. Latecomers had the benefit of seeing what the standings were before voting so this should even things out.Seems like the old ball and cups shuffle!
see why I need your help!!!!!!!! who is it that use the Phrase DOH?are you going to do an A-10 Bill if the "All Eras" Ground attack crosses the line.....?
or drop it in the No Props any era......
