Congratulations to the winners! But all submissions were IMHO cool and pretty different.  :party:

And many thanks for setting this up and running the GB.  :bow:

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

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

Excellent work everyone!
Congratulation to the winners  :thumbsup:

I'm pleased that so many supported this build (my idea after all  ;)) and that the standards of builds were so high. Thanks must go to Old Wombat and Crudebuteffective for moderating so well.

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

It WAS fun yes, and we sure needed some of that recently.

Nice job everyone, entrants, moderators and just viewers too, one of the best GBs over the last year or so.  :thumbsup:

A very well done to those who mounted the rostrum after the voting and an extremely well done to all participants in what was a very well supported and enjoyable GB.

And moderators - Thank you gents  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

CammNut

Gosh, just found out I won something! Thank you everyone. Some fantastic creativity in this group build

PR19_Kit

Well done to all participants - so many great builds, especially the worthy winners. :bow: Of course, thanks again to the long-suffering mods, without whom these group builds could not happen. :cheers:

Well done everyone.  The Real World kept me from entering but it was a fun one to watch. Great stuff as always and congrats to the winners! 
So I got that going for me...which is nice....

Three cheers for the winners!!!  This was a fun deal right here... I got started way late and 95% of the work done was in the extension but that added an element of challenge-fun and I got to make a neat little airplane of my own that turned out better than I could have hoped so for me that was the best part. A lil greedy sounding perhaps, but it is what it is... Cessna baby!  ;D
