Move me up from maybe ...

I have selected June, but have a bit of wiggle room each side of that.

On further research, the Revell -1D will be good enough, I do not need a birdcage, just add a couple strips to the canopy -- so I have a kit and a project ...

Would you mind if I join in? I am thinking about a F4U-2 night fighter and a FG-1 Corsair in naval reserve markings.
On second thoughts, let's not go to Camelot. It is a silly place!

I hope I can still take part.
I forgot I was going to do one of my Corsairs in this.
I'm doing one on another forum and started the second kit at the same time.
So far I have painted the prop, scribed gills and redrilled the prop axle hole on the engine cowling.
If I stop there can I still build this one in the GB?
