Cool mate.

I dunno what I'm going to build yet. But it will probably be armour related :)

I can make both RAAF and SAAF P/F-51's, Cessna Bird Dog, B-26, F-4U Corsair, F-9F Panther

I have started a F-82 but hopefully it's not too advanced.

I'm surprised that the French Air Force wasn't involved as I was hoping to do a French F-4U

The only fighting forces of France to be involved in Korea was a small battalion made up of volunteers and reservists. And as far as is known were the only French to take part in the conflict. But looking forward to your builds. I'm looking for a decal sheet for Den Hess's aircraft.

Oh, I forgot to mention the F9 Panther will be made up as Ted Williams aircraft, mega famous American baseball player.

On the 16th February 1953 he was hit by ground fire (must have been a curve ball!:D) but he nursed his plan back to K13 and bellied the plane with it in flames. The aircraft was a right-off but Wiliams walked away. Personally, if I had landed a burning plane I would have run like hell!

I was fortunate enough to get both "Stars in the Sky" decal sets so I am looking to make, James Stewart's Liberators, Clark Gable's Fortresses, Gene Roddenberry's Fortress, Dan Rowan's P-40N and Sabu's Liberator.

While moving the stash to the new house I found a 1/48 and a 1/72 Sea Fury that will fit in nicely.

Whats that protruding from the trailing edges? Can`t remember seeing that on the RN machines so might be worth checking that out.

I'm 90% certain mate that you are right, you just need to get Royal Navy decals.

I've seen the protrusions on the trailing edge in a photo of a Royal Navy machine, a Mk.IV.

Looking forward to this GB. And I have a few things planned. Such as an M4A3E8, a DUKW. And aviation wise probably an F-51 or a T-6 Mosquito.
