    You have a point. This years 3 month Cold War GB only attracted three people (others showed an interest but were unable to join in) so yes, making it 12 months should get more participants. But, conversely, if someone joins in for the last 2 months, by themselves, will they feel like they are taking part in a group build ? But not to worry, I do understand why it's 12 months. BUT, all of a sudden I'm thinking of those 48hour (weekend) group builds you see on other forums...........no stop it - bad thoughts, go away...........

      That rather depends on how much effort the person that suggested the GB puts into promoting it and how long the thread maintains an interest...

        I understand what your also saying Ian, but no matter how much effort you put in, if the time restraints aren't to the builders liking you will hardly ever get 10 or more builders.

          Just to keep this one fresh in your minds, are there any more interested builders for this one?
          We've got 6 we only need 4 more to make it a go'er for next year.

                Must be some helicopters in peoples' stashes just itching to be built. There are lots of nice little 1/72 kits out there at reasonable prices.

                        As I have a couple of candidates in the stash, you might as well add my name Ian, so you just need to find one more. Send me a pm when your crew is ready.
