discussion Ron's 'Anti-Aircraft' 2018 G.B. suggestion.

[spanner570]

Anything specifically designed and produced to bring down aircraft. ( Other aircraft excluded)

The chosen system, be it a vehicle, platform or afloat, has to be modelled in A.A. configuration.

Any scale, any era.

Suggested running time - 1st Jan to 31st Dec. 9. Slot in when you can during 2018.

I don't think we've had this one before, I apologise if we have.

Great idea Ron!!
Let’s see what’s the response by the members.

 

[Mr Bowcat]

I like the sound of this, I'd be in.

 

[Guest]

Great suggestion Ron, I'd be up for that also

 

[Mr Bowcat]

Is any one else Googling SPAAG AFV's right now??

I quite like the look of the Chieftain SPAAG.

I knew someone would ask that, er' lol! Nice to have a bit of humour at such an early stage in the proceedings.....

Including me, we have 5 deffo's - Me, Bob, Tommy, Colin, and Paul. Looks like this might just be a goer.....

Cheers all,
Ron

Never joined one of these group build things before but this one sounds interesting. I think i have a couple of suitable kits that could be turnedout for this one.

So is that a yes or a maybe....

 

[spanner570]

Ian, we have 5 'maybe' posts up to now - This is already fun!

 

[tr1ckey66]

I'd be interested in this too if the GBs are far enough apart. I've already signed up to the Tornado and (possible) Panther GB.
Thanks

.....................Now 6 maybe's.

I don't care much for time scales for member's suggestion builds, so, if there are enough takers for this, how about starting and finishing as, and when it suits the builder? As long as it's during 2018 of course!

That would be a yes from me.

Cool, I'll try and fit an AA gun in the mix.
Isuspect I know the answer to this but I'll ask anyway. Can the AA gun featured not be pointing at the sky?
Cheers

Now 7 deffo's.....Looking good, Houston!
