I'm actually ok with anything, maybe a Corsair, Hellcat, P-47, Hurricane... man, there are so many cool planes out there that I need to get into my collection.

Please count me in too Jon.

I sent a PM with the necessary info. Thanks !

Scale: Any

Era: From 30's bi-planes to modern jets, and anything in-between.

Just one note of limitation. I prefer not to do WW2 axis aircraft. Something about close relatives fighting in WWII... I can appreciate the historical significance - and the quality of work that others put into these kits. They're just not something that I want to display in my house. I hope Santa doesn't get too bent outta shape about that.

Thanks,

Chris

Regarding my personal data: did you keep it from last year or do you need it again?
Oh, BTW, my first SS aircraft (I always feel strange writing "SS") is 98% done. Will try to post pics in the appropriate thread ASAP.

1/48 WWII fighters... NOT an Fw 190. Between the wars would be cool too.

Hey Jon,

I am in again for this years event. It was a blast last year and a ton of fun plus I got to know a lot of good folks out there. As last year I can be a backup Santa if needed. PM is on the way. My preferences are 1/48 WWII aircraft. Thanks Jon for hosting this great idea again this year.

Count me in, i'd love to be able to participate in this.

Obscure aircraft, 1/72 or 1/48 size is fine. But if all else fails WWI 1/72 size would be choice #2.

Looking forward to this, my info is on it's way.

I missed this one last year, but I want in this year! This is such a great idea, one in the true spirit of the holidays. I prefer to build 1/48 WWII aircraft. I can't wait to find out what my good little boy or girl wants. This should be a lot of fun, and thanks for hosting this GB again.

I'm PMing you what you need Jon.
