I don't do many group builds (except for local model club ones), but this one could get me interested.  I have worked on a few recce projects, especially choosing cameras or other sensors for them.  I have developed a real interest in history of aerial photography.

Well, I've had a hankering to build a PBY Catalina and I missed the 'Floats and Boats' GB.

I'll have to wait till August to see how things are looking before I commit for sure though.

 

Good luck with your GB in any case!!!

An August start time would be fine with me.  Now...let's see...which kit to pull out of the stash?  LOL!

Great! I'll tentatively look at August 1 for a start date then. Johnny, I feel your pain. I moved last year and it was a traumatic experience having to pack up the stash and work area to make it more "presentable" for potential buyers.

I'll make an attempt. I'm in the process of packing to move. But I can't resist

You bet.  I have a 1/48 GWH Fw 189 that I’d like to build.

Summer is good for me, we are not over run with GB's at the minute, so another won't hurt.

Would be interested with a big Phantom I've had in the stash for a long time if it started in late summer.

Cool! If we can get some more I'd be willing to run it. Is the summer sometime a good time to start for you all? Or should I wait a bit more? I don't want to step on anyone's toes with the current GB's going on

Lik it. I am hoping to build an Ar 234 recon later this year, this will give me an extra push.

It will give me an excuse to build the storch my wife got me for Christmas, so you can count me in.

This is an idea I've been kicking around for a little while, and wanted to see if there was any interest.  This would be a group build focusing on photo reconnaissance, observer, or scout aircraft.  There are a lot of different kits out of there of these birds, ranging in time period from WWI to today.  I was thinking it would run for a year, but I haven't decided on any kind of a start date.  Maybe sometime this summer if others are interested?
