Has there been a GB for Seaplanes in recent months/years? If so how subscribed was it?

Remember , common sense is not common.

I don't think there has been one in the last 18 months or so but I'm not 100% sure .

I have a few 1/72 scale Seaplanes in the stash ; Catalina , Albatross , Grumman Duck and Widgeon and last week I ordered the Mach 2 Convair Sea Dart . I'm even thinking about getting Mach 2's P6M2 Seamaster flying boat with beaching gear .

If you get enough interest , I'll join in with one of the above .

If anybody's interested, Sprue Brothers has the Revellogram PBY-5A in the super specials section for $30, + an additional 20% off for today only.

Hi guys, I was in the Floatplanes GB a few years back but never finished my Antonov An-2 -- if this one was to go ahead I'd bring that one back on the roster with pleasure, and maybe do something Japanese on floats too...

I was toying with the idea of starting a Floatplane GB around June. I still might. I gotta clear the bench a bit before I start or join another GB though.
