LOL CD that's a good question. I don't think we thought of that.

Here are the guidelines:

Any PLANE OR HELO that can land on water and take off

 

 

 

Not to be a Richard, but by definition an amphibious aircraft is one that can take off and land on both land and water.

 

The Goose is a good example.

Im in with a grumman goose in 1/48 by czech model

Yup, old Jack, now to figure out how to make him in 1/48 scale.

I remember Tales of the Golden Monkey. I'll put you on the list. Nice choice. Remember the dog?

BK

I guess this would be a good excuse to finally build my 1/48 Grumman Goose from Squadron.  I got the "Cutters Goose" decal set for it to make it up as the plane from "Tales of the Gold Monkey".

You can join whenever you want as long as you complete your build by the deadline of Dec. 31, 2016. So, no rush.

Hi, I am interested in this GB too but want to finish my current JU88A-1 1/32 before deciding on which kit to tackle.  I have never done a GB. Is there a deadline when I can sign up?  For example, do I have to post here before Jan. 1st or could I pose in July 2016 and still get on board as long as I finish by Dec. 31st.

Thanks!

This is shaping up to be a really neat GB. I am very stoked to do this and very honored that so many of you have chosen to come along.  Definatly going to see stuff we don't see too much of and that's pretty cool.

Here's mine, The Hasegawa 1/48 A6M2-N Type 2 Rufe, probably setting in the water by a dock or shoreline.

Good to see this. Sign me up for the Italeri 1/72nd Do 24.

 

 

 

 

Even in 1/72 that should be a big kit. I love that one. You're signed up.

 

BK

 

Ye, it does look rather large. Its the older boxing before they upgraded it. It was a gift so i am going to try and do my best with it. I also have the trolley from Kora, just need to work out a dio.
