I've been wondering about building another 'Century Series' jet recently and was just wondering if anyone fancied having a GB next year - like start Jan and finish June type GB?
Any thoughts?

I'd be in if I can get some other stuff done.

I’d be interested. I do love the Century Series and have several more to build in my stash.

I’m game if I can find aftermarket decals for a Griffiss AFB markings for an F-106 Delta Dart or F-102 Delta Dagger. I’m hoping to grab either jet as a Christmas gift this year.

That's cool Gents - I'm glad you'd be interested. I've been fancying building some Century Series Jets for a while - in fact I've always had this thought in my head about building them all.
I do have an F-100 and F-104 built, but I was thinking of starting again in 1/48. So far in the stash I've only got a F-105A but I'd like to add to that.
I was thinking a no pressure long term GB, so that those of us like Mike who have a lot on can clear some stuff before they join in - so running a good part of 2027?
Cheers!

Sure Stuart. I'll put on my usual show (start a model and not finish it
), but it will be fun and that is more important!

I resemble that remark!
I have a F-106 in the stash that I'd do.

LOL! But indeed, the whole point is a bit of fun - I often don't finish GB's but it's the comradery that's important.
I had a look at my F-100 and F-105 yesterday, and I might well build some more in 1/72 actually. Both are ok, they just need some work on the pylons - always a weak point with me.

Very cool - I do like the F-106, such a cool looking aircraft (well aren't they all really).
