What a wonderful reason to build my Tamiya 1/48 Bristol Beaufighter Mk.VI (a gift from a friend, who I hope might join in too).

I do hope you will send out reminders or otherwise transmit a wake-up call, Bish. I can't remember what I had for dinner last night. Remembering something into next April is quite a stretch. Sleep

I thought i would get this one out early before people start planning their builds for next year.

April 1st 1918 saw the founding of the worlds first Independent Air Force, the RAF (AKA Crab Air), with the amalgamation of the Army's Royal Flying Corps and the Navy's Royal Naval Air Service.

So, who would like to join in marking this event in the way we know best, with a Group Build. If there is enough interest, the build will run from April 1st 2017 for 12 months. It would be open to any build from the RAF, aircraft of course but also vehciles, figures, busts and anything else RAF related.

It would also be open to builds from the RAF predecessors, the RFC and RNAS, as well as Fleet Air Arm builds from its founding by the RAF in 1924 until it was handed over to the Navy in 1939. Also included would be foreign Squadrons which flew with the RAF.

So, put your name down and help mark this event.
