LOL! It sounds like a thing - as it is I have an F-14A, F-111E, EF-111A and a SU-17.

Re: Swinging 60’s GB **On 2023 GB Calendar**
Tony, here's a question, if it's the type that is important, would you allow what-if markings? No worries if that's a no, I was just wondering.

Re: Swinging 60’s GB **On 2023 GB Calendar**
Why not? As long as the aircraft falls into the ‘swinging (or swingwing) 60’s’ category.

Re: Swinging 60’s GB **On 2023 GB Calendar**
Oh, for this GB I would have some in stash: a F-14 in 1/72, a Mig 23 in 1/48, a Mig 27 in 1/48 and I even have a Mirage G in 1/72 but I'm sure I won't finish one of them within 4 or 6 weeks. But nevertheless I'll join if it is November 24 but not sure with which one, may be the Mirage G

You are most welcome to join in Martin, all ‘60’s swingers’ are welcome. The Mirage G looks like a good idea.

Re: Swinging 60’s GB **On 2023 GB Calendar**
Thanks Tony. I'm not saying I will, but I'm wondering about a Mig-23/27 in Albanian markings - or I might just break out the Tamiya Tomcat or Kittyhawk SU-17, I'll see how I feel.
Thanks again.

You originally planned for the SU-17 - but the 23/27 is fine. I am planning to do one of those myself.

Remember everyone, that flared trousers, flowery shirts, ‘bell bottoms’ etc etc etc should be worn whilst participating - proof not necessary.

I knew that keeping them in the wardrobe would be worth it!
Actually, they're still in fashion here....

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing
