Pearl Harbor GB December *** Forum Closed/Archived ***

[lancfan]

Do we fancy a Pearl Harbor GB next December ?

David.

[fredk]

Yes

[Old_Tonto]

Defo. Maybe an Airfix wildcat or Kate.

[TobyC]

I'm in

[Gregers]

Very tempting. I have a P26 that will look good in Olive drab and grey. Or I may be tempted to do a zero, so I'm a probable yes.

All the best.

Greg

[fredk]

I might do the P40B. Thats about all I have.
With every year, or anniversary, I've built a suitable subject, but now I'm running out.

NB: it Peal HarbOR - its a proper noun being the name of the place, not the generic noun for a safe place for ships.

I forgot about the new world spelling, thanks for the heads up Fred.

Having visited there this past summer, I'd be glad to join in. Model TBD (To Be Determined).

I haven't built a Zero in a long time. If there were Zeros involved, I'm in. Let me research it.

August

[fredk]

Zeros were used. As fighter cover for the bombers and to strafe attack the USAAF fighters and bombers at their airfields.

[Dazzled]

Should be a few entries for previously built models as we had a Pearl Harbor GB back in 2011.

[MarkyM607]

Another 75th anniversary and well worth doing when it comes round. I have two Zero's and a Val. Might leave a Zero for this although it seems a long way off!!.

[Arcwelder]

I'd be more than up for this. I take it the shipping is within the build parameters?

[lancfan]

Floating subjects are certainly allowed as they were part of the action.

I did a ship last time, not sure I have another idea handy ....
