I sugest a GB with the theme of aircraft that has two or more propellers.
They can be driven by one of more engines each, being either piston or turboprop.
Any scale.
Kits of 25% or less “started”
WIP pix please
Fixed wing or multi rotor helos allowed.
No pure jet engines allowed
Date 01-Mar-17 to 31-May-17 (3 full months)
Ideas for a GB badge welcome

Cool, I put you on the roster page solong, let’s see what the further interest is.
Theuns
My AC 47 is way too far along to qualify, but I have the old 1/48 Testor’s O2 to toss into the game.

Is that the 1/48 O-2? I heard it is actually a really nice kit.
Theuns
Yes. Have looked it over, can be built as an O2A or O2B. The A has more windows on the lower right fuselage. The B is more visually like the civilian version. Have always loved the old mixmaster. Hoping the Roden 1/32 comes out sometime soon, was supposed to be out around October.

Hey Theuns,
Sounds good - count me in with this 1/72 Airfix Bristol Blenheim Mk. I.
Hopefully I can finish her up in the 3-month window.

Great lewbud I got you up.
I propose something like this for a badge -
If someone more clever than I am can insert a GB name in the pic…

Or even this one if you could put a name in it…I recon the Bear was the ultimate propeller plane
I am slightly biass to the Shaccleton in my first pic but the Bear might appeal to a bigger group
Of your pix I like the second one of the “homebuilt” the most.
