Jamie, I`m happy to run this one, providing there`s an interest. ;)

I've a couple of ideas for this - another alternate universe Red Arrow may be in order

(although, as mentioned on another forum, nearly all of my builds tend to be Whifs as I throw the colour scheme chart away and spray it whatever colour I have)

Thanks to a very gracious Dave, the 1/48 F-117 kit has now been rolled over as the prize for this GB. :thumb:

Some Basic rules so far.....

Time and date - TBC

Duration - 2 months

Any scale, aircraft only please. (this is an aircraft forum after all, but happy to see any civvy variants in military guise...)

Entries should have a WIP thread, with all major stages of construction covered.

Entries should have a back story, this may be a couple of sentances or several paragraphs.

Any other questions or queries then let me know.

tc,
I might give this one a go as i have a couple of ideas for what-ifs and a couple of kits that fit em!

However, as its been a bit quiet here recently, most notably shown in the Speed Build GB, is there gonna be the people to do this?
Arabest,

Don`t see this as a problem. A mid June start date is penciled in. ;)

I think the SOP for GB`s is a minimum of 10 members so if we go for a mid June start I`m hoping we would have that number by then. As stated previously the Speed Build GB had it`s issues and it ended in a big fat fail. In this case, the time frame is longer so it may appeal to more of the `purists` out there to join in. After all, you can still build a model OOB, paint it in the correct colours but possibly change the unit markings so it becomes a `whif`. 617 Sqn upgrading to Typhoons would be a good example.

Anyway, over to you lot..... ;)

Just thought I`d bump this along. :whistle: Still need 3 more `players` for this to be considered an `official` GB. ;)

Planned start date is 15th June with all said and made by August 25th.
