afspret Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 The last post in this forum was on Tuesday, but the last one in the jets forum was about 40 minutes ago, and if you look at the "in progress" and "display" forums, with the exception of the ubiqutious Me-109, the vast majority of them are for jet projects. Is building prop job kits going out of fashion? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kurt H. Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I do not think so. If you go to a model show, the prop categories have a large number of entires.. This forum probably just has more jet builders for whatever reason. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MoFo Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 ARC skews to jet modellers. Other sites skew to prop modellers. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flyboyf18 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Maybe because when jet engines are up & running they whine a lot, so you have to keep them happy!?! Props just have a mighty growl which one tends to respect?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Charlie D. Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Head over to hyperscale, it's the opposite there! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Falconxlvi Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 I was at the IPMS US Nats. Props were represented over Jets by about 2:1 I'd say. The death of prop modeling isn't near! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DDC Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Maybe the prop guys are actually building models, rather than just talking about it? 🤣 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
