Group Build 2020/2021 First Poll.

They are basically in the order in which they were suggested.

I've included nearly all the suggestions made but have merged a couple of very similar ones so as not to dilute their vote and have dropped one or two because they were not, in my opinion anyway, What If.

Now I've given you 15 votes, although you don't have to use them all, and I will put 15 or so through to the second round. Not fixing the number now as I don't want to be too harsh and drop things that only narrowly miss the "cut".

If you want to see more details and/or read the discussion it can be found via the link below.

I'll leave it open for 14 days.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Done.  I thought it would be easy to select 15.


It wasn't.  Far too many good ideas there.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Voted, too. My initial approach was to tick anything that I'd like - but that turned out to be more than 15 options...  :rolleyes: Good sign, though.

Ye Gods!

It's a good thing we're in lockdown, as otherwise I'd never have enough time to do all that voting!  :o
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

I only put down 9 votes. Wish I'd added on the Small Nations GB as well.

I picked about 18, then went back and unpicked those that were subjects i'd build anyway whether there was a GB or not.

However, i'd just like to say GO PIRATES!

Polled ! Really hard work, but nowhere near the effort putting up the poll! Thanks for the work!  :thumbsup:
Only question: the 2 GB:

The Earlier Jets GB. Suppose the jet turbine had gone into production in 1920 or 1930 ?

The Chicken or Egg GB. (The jet turbine was put into production while the bi-plane still ruled etc)

aren't more or less the same?
Owing to the current financial difficulties, the light at the end of the tunnel will be turned off until further notice.
