    It never occurred to me that all of these cool paint schemes you were doing in the group builds were part of a much bigger build, Allan (@kalamazoo). What a great project. Have you figured out how many planes you plan to build?

    That is a tremendous list, Allan (@kalamazoo). It looks like there are about 30 per page, so about 150 listings. Many of them will be markings that will be unavailable in decals, so they will require handpainting or custom decals. I can imagine how cool all of the different colors and paint schemes will look when you get them all complete. It will be quite an undertaking to gather all of the models required to build this fleet. Do you already have the models required, or is gathering them still part of the project?

    Thanks George, most of them I have decals for, most with the kit, some after market, a few will need to come from the spares folder, almost all listed I have ! I won't live long enough to build them all !

    Hi Allan (@kalamazoo). My problem exactly. Many more kits than I will have time to build. I really thought I had a chance until I passed 70, then reality set in.

    What would be really cool is to see all these doing a flyby at an airshow. What a sight that would be! 🙂
