I would be doing the Airfix P38 H Lightening from the "WWII Aircraft of the Aces" collection, as flown by Major Thomas B. McGuire.

I also have an Airfix Mosquito that I may do in Israeli Air Force colours, as these are my two themes for this year.

I'm going to try and reduce my stash by building these three.

I think I might have to pass on this GB, for time reasons. Plus I only have P-38 and Whirlwind options, and they are well covered!

Oh well Andrew. I was kind of hoping we would also have you for this GB too. But I can understand why time permits and stuff.

That's something different. I find it hard to believe that was so long ago now.

Undecided on this. The only suitable kit I have is either the older Revell or the new Airfix Bf110, but there are so many of those being built already that I can't overly see there being interest in it.

You are wrong about that Brickie, I love to see the same kit being made by different folks, gives insight into the ways people approach the same subject.

I'm tempted to join in with either an Airfix Mosquito NF.II or an Italeri Do 217J-2.
