The Group Build Participants Icon Thread....

Yea, I like them too the way they are, so I'm not proposing to replace the current ones but rather to make new ones for those future GB for which we don't have icons yet.
Few ideas - Messerschmitt Bf 110 for "Night fighters GB", Hellcat or Zero for "Aircraft Carrier Planes GB", etc. Don't know what to suggest for "Home Country Modern Aircraft GB" though. Maybe MiG-21 or F-16 as this two aircraft are widely used by other nations.

I was thinking of the following:

Nightfighters: He-219

May 1st-Aug 30th, 2011 - Focke Wulfs Messerschmitts: Me 110
Aug 1st-Nov 30th - Aces Aircraft of WW2: P51 Mustang
Nov 1st, 2011-Feb 28th, 2012 - Aircraft in Foreign Service WW2 / Captured Aircraft SPLIT BUILD: He 112? Hurricane?
Feb 1st-May 31st - Your Favorite Aircraft of All Time - no clue whatsoever - maybe a F-14 tomcat?
May 1st-Aug 30th - Home Country Modern Aircraft / Spitfire Marks SPLIT BUILD: F-16 / Spitfire
Aug 1st-Nov 30th - Aircraft Carrier Planes - TBM Avenger (or maybe Arado Ar 196?)
Nov 1st, 2012-Feb 28th, 2013 - From WW1 to WW2 1914-39 - Cr 32, I-15 or possibly a WW1 biplane of some sort
The Jet Age 1944-45 / Recon-Transport-Observer Aircraft of WW2 SPLIT BUILD - Me 262 or Me 163 / Fiesler Fi 156

How about this...

Night fighters: Junkers Ju 88G (we just have to get Ju 88 in the mix in some context)
Focke Wulfs Messerschmitts: Messerschmitt Bf 110
Aces Aircraft of WW2: Messerchmitt Bf 109G (Hartman "Black Tulip")
Aircraft in Foreign Service WW2 / Captured Aircraft: Heinkel He 111 in Slovakian Markings 8)
Home Country Modern Aircraft: MiG-21 or F-16
Aircraft Carrier Planes: A6M Zero
From WW1 to WW2 1914-39: would be nice to see some WW1 bird - Fokker Dreidekker or Albatros or SPAD
Jet Age 1944-45 / Recon-Transport-Observer Aircraft of WW2: Me 262 or Fw 189 or C-47

No ideas about other Group Builds...... yet. :)

Chris, I think it's indeed for 1914-1939 period. And may I add that is great set of profiles there mate.
Taking the liberty to add another one for "From WW1 to WW2 1914-39 GB" - Von Richthofen's Fokker Dr.I. Must say I wouldn't mind seeing this or something similar as Group Build icon.
