We've ended up with 12 entries for this GB. See the Finished Entries thread for details:
http://www.whatifmodelers.com/index.php/topic,17678.0.html

The theme of the GB was 'Advancing old technology. Build the ultimate in piston engined airplanes. Ultimate engines mated to the ultimate airframe.'

The poll will be open for 7 days, until Feb. 11 on 10.00 CET.

Well, I've voted, but it was an almost impossible choice. I wish that we'd been able to vote for a top three, although even that would have been just as difficult.

We don't just embrace insanity here.  We feel it up, french kiss it and then buy it a drink.

Yes, a very hard decision to make.  Well done everyone.

A very tough choice, but I have cast my vote. Many congratulations to all who took part. The level of builds and the diversity of ideas was amazing.

Very very hard to choose!!!! Top three? I was thinking top four almost.

Oh my. May the best man win. Ie, all of you :P

SPINNERS

Chapeau to everyone who entered! I've enjoyed looking at them all and found it an agonising vote.

Almost missed my chance to vote!  What a great collection of ideas, and well-executed, too.
You can all take a bow.
