RLWP Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 My understanding of the 'Silver Screen'on is any aircraft from a film or TV program. Its pretty broad and has a lot of potential. Think Waldo Pepper, Dambusters, Flight of the Phoenix, Out of Africa. Or Piece of Cake, Wings, and on and on. Lots of potential - I could model one of Dick Grace's SPADs that he crashed Richard Archimedes 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grant_T Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Operation Enduring Freedom might be a topical choice. Combine it with with the bungled Soviet invasion, and there are a bunch of options to build. Daniel Leduc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee White Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) I like the African idea, but if expanded to areas east of the Suez, you could add a gigantic number of possibilities. "Playing in the Sandbox" could include areas of the middle-east not normally seen. Iranian Ali-cats, phantoms, Iraqi Hunters and MiGs, Saudi F-15s, Israeli Kfirs/Mirage, the list is long. Just my $.02. Edited August 17, 2021 by Lee White Alain Gadbois, Dragon and Rick Griewski 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I'll be able to rustle up a decent book on African air forces to give away as a prize. BradG 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Williams Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 In Memoriam? Kits from companies that aren’t in business anymore, like Kitty Hawk and WNW. Perhaps Monogram also? Rick Griewski 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Griewski Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Just the engine. We all have kits I bet that the engine is a good representation but we cover it up or there is not much to see: Resin engine aftermarket Me-262 P-47 Many jets P-51 Mosquito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
