Gorgeous Corsair!

I would like to join this GB if possible with couple small scale jets:

Cyber Hobby 1:200 Avro Vulcan  (does it qualify for this GB?)

Dragon 1:144 J-20 PLA Stealth Fighter

Cheers

Hey guys,
I'm not really that active anymore, but I try to check up as much as I can.

To your questions about entering, Yes you can,

Eathis, are you talking about the English Electric Lightning?
If so, Yes you can, not because of it's Delta wings, but I think they have a very odd shape (When you look at it from above), Can't really think of any other plane that was produced with such wings.

With regards, Ninetalis.

Like a dummkopf, I completely forgot about this GB and that I had entered my F-8 in it. Here is my build so far:

then I got hung-up on the painting--my Airbrush kept giving me fits. So I got the build to where it was acceptable and called it quits for a bit. Didnt want to sent it on a one-way flight, you know? Ill come back to it in a little bit, with fresh eyes and new determination.

Owl,

I think you've made great progress.  Just give it some time and think about what you want to do.  Maybe a different approach.  You'll figure it out.  Big Smile

Don't worry, forgetting things is humane.
Nice wiring, must have watched over this one in your previous thread.

I just had a brief look through this thread and there are some really nice models in here!

I would like to join as well if the GB is still running...

I have (hopefully) 2 planes to build for this one. Thy are both made by Dragon and in 1/48th scale:

A He-162 with those nice forward-swept wings:

 

and one of those cute little Komets (I hope I can get my hands on it at least):

Any tipps on finding a kit for the Komet?

Cheers, Clemens

I just saw that kit listed on ebay with a Ta 152.  Do a search for "Ta 152 H-1 and Me 163 B Komet"

I got back to the F-8 with cementing the nose on and applying putty to the seam.

I'm also just about to start a Grumman X-29 so I figured I could post the progress of that here as well.
