Feeler - Bomber GB

OK, I'll throw in with a 1/144 Trumpeter Tu-16K-10 Badger C.

Interesting info Stick , thanx for that.

The rules are not cast in stone, it is basically just that say an F-22 or other modern multi role craft does not use mainly Bombs as its chief weapon.

Eg a JU-87 dive bomber - Yes defenatley, a cannon JU 87, I dont think it counts.

I will post the official thread tomorrow. I will do the first post with Rules , Bish will run the pix page.

With that timeline, I'm in.  Would be Academy's 1/72 B-17E, Pacific Theater.  Strictly OOB.

Won't have to keep slapping it upside the box to stay off the bench.

Great news, I’d love to contribute.  I have an Airfix He-111 H6 that I’d like to tackle!

I'm still in.  Thinking of the 1/48 Mono B-24D.....been wanting to do a Mono monster and haven't done one since I was a teen!

A Hawker Typhoon mainly had rockets not bombs so it is not in, P-51 could chuck bombs but were mainly fighters in WW2, however in Korea they were ground attack bombers so for that conflict it will work.

 

I spoke to Bish and between the two of us we can host this GB with a longer completion date.

If we were to do this GB from say 1 Feb 18 to say 1 April 19 (14 months) would there be more interest?

OK so my allowed timescale seems to be the biggest problem for allot of people, this is because data costs here are extremely high and with no fixed income (contract work) ,longterm GB will be difficult for me to monitor.

I think there might be more interest in it if it is a longterm thing, therefore maybe someobe else would be interested to host it ?

I am more than happy just to participate :-)

PS. thanx for the heads up WRT my poor spelling, will fix the heading..

I'd need at least 1 year as I would probably opt for a Monogram 4 engine kit... I don't get much bench time!

I'm like Bish and MC, have a 1/72 B-17E Pacific Theater, that I have to keep slapping as it tries to jump on the bench,  but too much on the plate until way later in the year.

I'm with Bish. I have a 1/144 Badger but may not be able to get to it for 6 to 8 months.

I opened this thread curious about what a 'Bobmer' is. You would think that I'd twig that it was a typo.

I'll squeeze something in Theuns if you get this going. 

Cheers

I like the ideea as well, but to short for me. Would have to run into next year.

Oh man,  I would love to but I’m booked for the next few months.  I have quite a few Luftwaffe bombers in the stash that are just begging to be built! 

I’m interested to but have two planes a car and a tank 

Theuns...you have peaked my interest.  LOL!  I'd be up for a Bomber GB.

Cool, lets see if there is more interest then I will open an "official" thread.

I went through my collection and the Pro modler 1/48 JU -88 is just calling out to be built :-)

Theuns

I'm sure I've got something in the stash that will work. Count me in.
