Flyboyf18 Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Well here's the plan; CF-18 907 in it's grey scheme with 2 480 gallon drop tanks that we were testing when I worked there. I got to participate in this test in 907 when we flew a trip into B.C. on a hi-lo mission to test the tanks, 2.6 hours in the back seat of 907!!! 907 got a repaint after I left the Squadron to the really sharp red/white/black colour scheme, gotta do that!!! Then IF I get those 2 done we will see what the stash spits out!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

doupnik Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 I am going to do a Revell 1/48 F/A-18E, I have started two of them in the past but never finished one, I am hoping third time is a charm. :thumbsup:/> Besides I seem to have several of them, darn you Michael's and your infernal coupon! If I finish, I might do another or tackle a Has 1/48 F/A-18E. The first one will be a VFA-147 bird and I want to do it five wet with a refueling pod. mason Quote Link to post Share on other sites

bikerider Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Hi all I'm planning a couple. A CF -18a line jet from 425 Alouettes. I have a pic of the jet I'm planning to build and it's very dirty, so the goal is to try to match my painting tibthenoic. Unfortunately I can't post said pic here from my phone. Kit will be a Hobbyboss 1:48 hornet c If I have time, I plan another CF-18a, also using a HB kit. But this one would be super detailed. I had a Wolfpack CF-188 cockpit upgrade, folded wings, Aires exhausts, avionics bay and one piece engine inlets. That'll be the first time i go THAT detailed on a kit. Have fun all Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Siamese11 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 I'm in with a 1/32 Academy F/A-18. I haven't decided weather to build a F/A-18C or a D model. I'm leaning towards the C model due to the fact I have a set of very colorful Zotz 32009 Swiss Hornet decals. Dan Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Colin K Posted July 2, 2014 Author Share Posted July 2, 2014 Well this one is a commission build. Doing a CF-188BM 410 Sqn 188732 line bird. Using Canuck decals FIP Markings royal resin wheels and Wolf pack CF-188 upgrade set. Using the Hasegawa Navy test pilot F-18B boxing in 1/48th scale. Shouldn't it be 932, if it's a B?? A friend of mine on Facebook had his name on 932 when he was an IP at 410, during the filming of Jetstream. I built his jet in 32nd scale, even had it printed in RT.

ALF18 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I may do a total of 4... or even 5? What can I say, it's my favourite aircraft type. Will start with 1/48 Hobbyboss F/A-18A kit, made into a CF-18 from 425 or 433, symmetrical era markings. QRA configuration probably... Next, a 1/32 Academy kit, still deciding on squadron and load-out. It will be a CF-18 (of course), likely from 409 squadron in the Baden/Germany era. Third, another 1/32 Academy kit, this time a dual. Likely a 410 or 433 aircraft, not sure yet. I will be using some aftermarket, such as two Wolfpack upgrade sets (one in 1/48, another in 1/32) from which I will do some upgraded CF-18s at the end. Too many kits. Too little time. Too little shelf space! Looking forward to participating in this GB. ALF Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Devilleader501 Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I would like to join with a 1/32 scale F-18C Out of box with AM decals. Only the pit and front gear has been started and not much done at that. I am posting a few pics in order for it to be accepted just in case I have too much done to it.
