martin_sam_2000 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm in with an RCAF Otter and an RCAF Canso. Maybe more..I will have to see what I have and how much time there is near the end. Sean Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sir Fondlebottom Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I will be a late joiner after my Star Wars gb things are done. I have collected most things I need I think, and will be building the 1/32 Hasegawa Fi 156C Storch with skis. I will convert it into the medevac D model, requiring modification to the clear parts, fuselage and interior, but hopefully still pretty easy due to the nature of the Storch simplicity.

White Wolf Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Would the Osprey be eligible for the GB as a CSAR bird? I have the Hasegawa 1/72 in the stash. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 If the Osprey has stretchers and med kits on board, yes. That means no big turreted guns hanging off it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) For me. CH-149 Cormorant . Airfix 1/48 kit with Belcher conversions. CH-118 Huey. Red and white from the 70s. CH-46 Pt Maugo or Pensacola. Adding as the other 3 are done, HH-60H OOB. And now an H-34. RCAF. Edited March 8, 2015 by phantom Quote Link to post Share on other sites
polybebber Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Would one of these qualify? They belonged to the 5th Emergency Rescue Squadron and were carrying life rafts and smoke markers. If yes, I only have to decide if 48th or 32nd scale. Lothar Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Emvar Posted January 2, 2015 Author Share Posted January 2, 2015 Lothar, Did a quick google search and It satisfies the spirit of the Group build..... Very interesting Read Link to background Go for it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bigasshammm Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Ive got one of the crappy 1/144th B-17Gs with Draw Decals for a fire bomber I'll do at some point. Will try to make the kit look reasonable. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dnl42 Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 Fire bombers? Hmm, I have Lone Star bits for a 1/48 TBF fire bomber... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
John Lequerica Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 I'm in. I'll be attempting a 1/35 MH-60S from the NAS Fallon SAR team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Drifterdon Posted January 2, 2015 Share Posted January 2, 2015 (edited) I'm in with the hopes of actually finishing something. Plan on doing the Monogram 1/72 SA-16 Albatross. Was planning on doing the SAC markings from the SuperScale 72-184 sheet but not 100% certain now. Have seen some Albatross's that were ADC grey.

ST0RM Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Just dug out the old 1/72 Airfix Sea King HAR.3. That'll be my entry. I'd like to fold the main rotors though, so I'll investigate that possible option. Jeff Quote Link to post Share on other sites

phantom Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Some nice choices. Especially like the Belgium Sea King. Anytime you can start your model on the actual airframe your building...well that just awesome. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Trojan Thunder Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 I have a few options but am undecided on rotary or fixed wing! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kstater94 Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Mind if I join in with a Sea King HAR.5 from 771 Squadron, RNAS Culdrose? Cheers! John ZA167 CU22_ACI by c38904, on Flickr Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 Please do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tobiK Posted February 21, 2015 Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) I have a heart for brits and that want me to start with a Wessex HU.5 from Italeri in 1/48. Not decided about the version yet and the Xtradecal sheet gives me some more nice options. But of course it will be a "rescue" chopper! The kit should be very nice to build what i have read yet. Only the decals should be goofed by Italeri: some are under-/oversized!! Huhhh...I hope that will not be too serious!? Let's see if I want to fold the rotor (at least I could do with the rotorfold set). Edited February 21, 2015 by tobiK Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GretarBill Posted February 23, 2015 Share Posted February 23, 2015 Hi I havn't been very active here latly.

wiley2770 Posted March 14, 2015 Share Posted March 14, 2015 Hello, Is it too late to join? I mostly lurk the main page, but saw this GB in the sidebar. I started Gallery's US Navy Rescue H-34 (HSS-1N) in January and posted some WIP's over in HS. If there are no objections, I would love to join. Thanks, Gary Quote Link to post Share on other sites
