[The Smythe Meister]

Just realised that I forgot to say that this will be my entry......the acquisition that started it all!

I'll have you know I have a number of Weekends too.....I'm not that posh you know.....in fact I will have a count later on!

Ok , so a Soviet aircraft GB , what makes you think I would be interested? :rolling::smiling5:
Of course I’m in , got a good few in the stash and may even do more than one !

It may have been said before, but the closest GB subject that comes to mind was a Mig-21 GB several years ago. That’s significant because I managed to complete a GB within the time limit.

I found the thread I was referring to.

Sorry, I no longer participate in GB’s but I’ll follow with interest.

I’m going to join in on this GB, not sure what yet though.

[Dave Ward]

Count me In - I've a few 1/48 candidates in the stash - Stormovlk, Su-2, Po-2, I-153, I-16, Yak-3 - I won't decide yet - I'll do one that no-one else does!

Not being a wingy guy means I will give this one a miss but will be watching the builds as I still admire model aircraft even if I don't build them.

Neither was I but I probably have as many wingy kits in the stash as I do armour!! Go on...you can het some good kits for under £20 @ 1/48!

[adt70hk]

Ho yus. That'll give me an 'excuse' to finish that MiG-3...
Oh, and the Winter War? DEFINITELY part of WW2, but saying 'outbreak' of WW2 is less easy to define... Khalkin Gol anyone?

Hi Chris

Just checking that you are definitely in for this?

Not sure Tony TBH. I felt your name calling for some inexplicable reason. I do keep meaning to ask though, what's the 'yak' in your username mean??? :thinking::thinking:

In all seriousness, you've been very supportive since I started dabbling in wingy things. I do have one condition though given your penchant for Soviet planes.....you have to build the same kit as mean and make sure you're ahead of me in the build process, so I can follow what you do!

Glad to have you on board!

Rick no problem, I for one would welcome whatever advice and support you can provide!

Thanks for joining Dave. So that rules out the Yak-3 for you....sorry but it's the only one I have in the stash.



Thanks again all!

Go on John! You know you want to!!

Seriously though as a Soviet 4BO man you will have a seat reserved on the front row!

I have a 1-32 scale I-16 in the stash and a GB would be a good excuse to build my first plane for a few years, but not sure if I will be free of my other distractions by October. Can I pencil myself in maybe?
I guess the Spanish Civil War doesn't qualify as a time-frame,then?
