Sounds good, nice one. I've decided my build. An OV10 Bronco using the excellent Mike Grant UAMF decal sheet.

All the best.

I had an idea to build exactly the first thing I ever built on the forum - a Tamiya Skyraider. But that's an A-1. And I'm not building 10 of them.
Would ya like to learn to fly? Would ya? Would you like to see me try?

A Skyraider = 10 keystrokes :)

I am very surprised that no one has suggested building the RAF's anniversary C-17 with "10" on the tail.
I've got no other options I'm afraid.
I really want to do the Blinder with the registration/fleet number 10 as it would give meaning to the number for me instead of just making it totally random and it might be the only Blinder in this GB.
Also the ESCI Tu-22 Blonder was the first model I saw of Gregg's and any member of UAMF at the 2014 SMW.
Also what I was wondering is are we keeping this GB as a standard 1 month running time or due to it being the big 10 years are we having more time?

Hi Adam.
If it's an actual Blinder with the fleet number 10 (A google search should fine one) then go for it mate.

All the best.

Have we a date fixed for this?
March 10th will soon be upon us.
March 10th to April 10th or end of April?

Perhaps, as this is a special occasion GB, John will give it a bye and let it run and let folk join up as it goes on?

I'll message John as soon as I've typed this. I have to admit that this has really snuck up on me as I've been busy with real life.

All the best.

Hi folks.
I've pm'd John, if you guys want (and I know it's a late call) we could start on the 10th March and finish on the 10th April. How does that fit in with you guys?.

All the best.

I have an Airfix A10 saved from the recent Desert Storm Anniversary GB to do for this. I am also making good headway with my Spitfire in the Edgar Brooks Memorial GB so the dates would be fine with me.
