I have been wanting to do a Russian B-25 for years. I have had two false starts. The box is sitting on the table waiting for 11/1/11. Maybe this time, #$ I found a voice message on the cell phone about a job interveiw. Build a plan or start work next month, I will have to think about this at the pub Friday night.
 
The A-20 would be cool. I never really had any idea as many were used until I read the book Aegian Pirates and Soviet Airpower in WW2. The Soviets can put torpedos and turrets on anything!
 
I have at least two I'm thinking about doing for the Foreign Service GB.
First is a later version of the P-51 I'm building right now, but later in it's life when it was flying with the Dominican Republic Air Force in the mid and late 1950s.
The second is a Curtiss Hawk 75M with the Thai Air Force in 1941. The 75N was an export version of the P-36 with fixed, spatted landing gear. I had been looking for this Hobbycraft model for several years and found it recently on eBay for next to nothing.
 
The title of the next GB is Aircraft in Foreign Service WW2 / Captured Aircraft SPLIT BUILD so that would seem to eliminate non WWII aircraft from the foreign service half of the build, but a captured bird from another era could be done I suppose.
 
Well I'm still gonna be on 109's as I NEED an excuse to get a couple done I have wanted to do for some time...Italian G-14 of Mario Bellagambi or Carlo Miani and a Rumanian G-2a of Constantin Cantacuzino......and if time permits maybe a Finnish Hawker Hurricane!
