LSP_Kevin Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Welcome to the Double Trouble! Group Build. The theme for this Group Build is any LSP-class aircraft or helicopter that features twin engines, seats or tail planes. Wings don't count! We've decided that twin floats are in however. Other options are subject to negotiation and approval. The Group Build will run for 6 months, finishing on 28 February 2015. So, who's first?

Squito2340 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I'm thinking that a Mitchell is doable. Australian version in all natural metal... Not experienced at all with natural metal finishes but it's about time I started and finished one. andromeda673 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dora9 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 Ok I'm in with this one! Wanted to do this one for quite some time, now I have the push that I needed! andromeda673 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mywifehatesmodels Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 (edited) I'm in with the IL-2M3 (two seats). Tentatively going with this scheme, as I have the mask set for it (but research on the IL-2 is about to drive me nuts, so I could end up changing my mind on its final colors!). Really looking forward to this one. John Edited September 1, 2014 by mywifehatesmodels Tewika and andromeda673 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avenger2614 Posted September 1, 2014 Share Posted September 1, 2014 I'm in with the somewhat problematic Academy 1/35 AH-60L DAP Blackhawk. I'll be adding the Eduard Interior, Exterior, and Dashboard photo-etch, Cobra Company Correction/Detail sets for the UH-60L. I do have Werner's Wings decals for the 160th SOAR "Nightstalkers," but I feel like everybody who builds a Blackhawk builds a Nightstalker, so I may just build a generic UH-60L (I really don't like the pylons on the side, but do like the refueling probe). Here is what we're working with: I do, however, have to get this strange looking thing off the bench first. . . -Daniel S.

mywifehatesmodels Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 Do a Mongolian one. Any references for that, or are you suggesting I go with something that's less likely to be criticized, due to lack of documentation? At this point, I'm giving that some thought, too. This seems to be a subject that even a lot of "experts" can't agree on and I have my own opinions, too. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zero77 Posted September 2, 2014 Share Posted September 2, 2014 (edited) Kev, when it's said "wings dont count", does it mean "no biplane", or just "dont try to fool us saying an airplane has 2 wings" ? Technically, we can say most biplanes have 3 wings : 2 lower wings + 1 upper deck. Or does it mean "it's way too controversial and intricate, so wings just dont count"?
