Early jets and Rockets 1939-1950

Post by Gadfly »

Any interest in a GB featuring Early aircraft and rockets featuring rocket,turbojet and Pulsejet propulsion that actually flew between the years 1939 and 1950.

Any scale, any scheme any nation.

Experimental types welcome,
Rockets, flying bombs and early missiles welcome.
Early jet fighter and bomber aircraft welcome.

No WHIF's or Luft 46 types.

If building a rocket or flying bomb / missile the primary subject of the build has to be the rocket / flying bomb. So a HE177 with some HS 293 missiles is not an eligible build for example.

For reference, we did two early jet GB's, one in 2014 ( http://www.uamf.org.uk/viewforum.php?f=281; ) for pre-1970 and one in 2012 ( http://www.uamf.org.uk/viewforum.php?f=203; ) for 1939-1949. I don't think we've had rockets included so that's a nice variation.

It's my model and I'll do what I want with it.

I'd be quite interested in this . For SMW next year the CW SIG are looking to put on a display representing the early years of the Cold War so this would fit right in.
COLD WAR S.I.G. LEADER

Wherever there's danger, wherever there's trouble, wherever there's important work to be done....I'll be somewhere else building a model!

Hi,

Well perhaps we should have an early Cold War GB then.. I'll suggest it...
