Dog fighter doubles

[Spearjig]

Just an idle thought as I wait for WOT to load up. What would the forum propose as future two kit boxing ( cost not a problem) The most obvious one I can think of is the sea fury and the Mig 15 in North Korean colors or the Blenheim and the 109E. Anybody any others? Could even be a future group build?

The newly coming Airfix Defiant with their Dornier Do17

Phantom vs Mig21? They'd have to cut moulds for both first, of course, but then, you said cost wasn't an issue

[Kitaholic]

Well if cost is no issue, how about F-14 v Su-22, or (not a dogfight, but an intercept) Tu-95 and a Phantom FGR2 ( Honest I'm not greedy)

I'd thought about that, but couldn't choose between Gulf of Sidra and the even wilder encounters in the Iran-Iraq war.

Good idea, strengthens the case for an new Phantom family of kits

[CementNotGlue]

Re-tooled Mirage IIIC in Israeli markings and a new Mig-21PF (early version) in Egyptian markings. Don't forget the black display stand to prop them on!

James Bond's Little Nellie [Airfix re-issue, still in 1/24th] vs a Bell Sioux helicopter [ or two, or three]

[Dazzled]

This has already been suggested as a GB. I'd certainly be up for it.

Airfix Sabre and Mig-15 perhaps?

[TobyC]

how about WW1. Plenty of scope there.

I thought we were pretty well advanced with plans for it [?]

Phantom v SAM 2

Nice one, only:

If all the interested modellers, worldwide, offered a reward for the return of the mould, then who knows?!

Spitfire 1b vs Ju88A1

Spitfire 1b vs Ju88A1

I suppose that has to be August 12, 1940 - III Kampfgeschwader 51 Junkers Ju88-A1 Vs Spitfire of 152 Sqn. R.A.F. Warmwell.

Nice to see fellow BoB fanatics on the forum! Yes, the 1b is pretty obscure and the cannon were singularly unreliable, but it would make a nice change from the garden variety 8 Browning version and thanks to your timely reference, Airfix now have some marking schemes to research to go with the suggestion!
