Hi Theuns so any plane with Defensive weapons how about Torpedoes ? 

 

Theuns

The Kate, Jill, Grace etc are also called attack/torpedo bombers so wouldn't they meet the criteria?

The badges are gorgeous so I may get in on this one too either with a 1/72 B-17G or a 1/72 Ju88. Still thinking about which one.

Hello Gents,

Id like to join please, the 1/72 Airfix Junkers Ju-87B-1, been after an excuse to start it!

 

Looking forward to that one, intending to do that kit next year myself.

I'm definitely in (like Flynn).

Those badges are great.

I just haven't decided yet, there are a few in mind in the stash in 1/72, an Airfix Whitley or Lanc Mk II, A Hasegawa B-25 or B-26, maybe a Vulcan or Valiant or even a Gloster Javelin. I'll decide later.

Cheers

Tony

I must say those badges are very cool :-D

 Ok Guys Put me in for the Short Stirling B.I/III Airfix 1/72 I've always done american. so It now time to do something different. I know this is ww2, but, my eyes kept coming back to the Short Sterling.

Sounds like fun

Nice badges Bish, already saved the -17 to the file.

Bish, I LOVE that Ju88 badge!

Ok I’m in with either a hasegawa B-17 or minicraft B-24 ? need to wrap up some builds 1st 

Would like to join with the Academy 1/72, B-17E, Pacific Theater, OOB.  Will get it started sometime mid-year.

Thanks for hosting guys, should be a great GB, know more will jump in as it gets going

I was thinking about that very same question, in my first gut feel I would think that it is a rather grey area as it is an underwater "missle" for lack of a better description.

This would then mean that an air to ground missle or rocket would also count for this GB.....it is a tough one but I would say maybe any weapon that was "propelled" does not come to mind if I were to think of an aircraft dropped bomb.

Unless the majority of the guys think I am wrong with this assesment?

Bish had come up with some stunning badges, I will ask him to post, you guys will love them I am sure :-)

Theuns

PS, guys if I dont reply quickly it is just because we are about 8 hours ahead of the US east coast so I might be sleeping LOL

Hi Theuns so any plane with Defensive weapons how about Torpedoes ? 

Nice!  I’m in with a 1/72 Airfix He111 H-6!  

I don't know much about WW1 aircraft, the only 2 bombers i can recall, other than the Zeppelins, are the British 0/400 and German Gotha.

Ken, Stirling is WW2, one of 3 4 engined heavy bombers used by the RAF

 

Thanks Bish Shows How much I know about British bombers. I seen a couple of British That are definitely ww1 on Ebay. I'll let you know what I come up with

Ken, Stirling is WW2, one of 3 4 engined heavy bombers used by the RAF

okay I was just looking for something different well different for me that is

How about a Short Stirling B.I/III ? Is that WW1?  I'm starting to get interested in that war.

Pencil me in guys. I'm not sure what it will be yet though.

Thanks

I should be able to get in this one. Mark me down for Acurrate Minatures sbd-3. I need to get a start on it soon for the Battle of Coral Sea GB.

Nice start, i am in with a 1/72nd MPM Blenheim Mk I. Can get that in at the end of the year and might be able to add another next year.

Welcome all, roster page updated.
