The Aircraft we would HAVE to Scratch Build Right Now


Recommended Posts

1. Avro Anson (I have started the Combative Models kit.  Very primitive)

2. Breda Ba-65 A-80.  The most dumb and ugly beast.  Combat Models kit is a shell.  But you can do either of the two major variant, one or two seater.  This one is all about scratch building
3.  Bouton Paul Defiant.  The resin kit is mostly scratch building.

#1) Auster series.

Preferably a J1b, but all of the J series would be splendid. 

 

#2) Beechcraft Staggerwing series.

(The ITC/ Staggerwings Unlimited kit doesn't count, one look at it and you know there is literally nothing accurate about it, or could be used to help a scratch build.

 

#3 Grumman Widgeon. 

I'd love ALL the grumman amphibs in large scale, but if only one, the G44 Is MY dream plane. 

 

4th runner up, and i agree with @Iain, a Chipmunk would be fantastic! My father owns one and getting to fly him in it recently was a monumental occasion that I'd love to replicate in model form :D

 

Denzil 

What great choices! I flew a Chippie whilst in the ATC back in the Triassic era. I can only agree a kit is needed. I know Robin Koh did a prototype.

 

Auster J series: swoon! Great choice! Biggles markings by any chance?

 

I know the Staggerwing kit may be not great but it is a kit… ;)

 

Thanks for taking part Denzil.

 

Kind regards,

Paul

Wow! I'd never seen this aircraft before Mike. It's a great candidate for a scratch build. 

It looks like someone threw a Helldiver, Thunderbolt and Skyraider into a blender and this is the result. :lol:

 

I Like it. 

 

The Chipmunk would be on my list too as would a Folland Gnat/HAL Ajeet. I'd even go (1/24th for that tiny aircraft)

DH 60 Gipsy Moth  (with DH 82 donor)

DH 83 Fox Moth     (with DH 82 donor)

 

DH 110 Sea Vixen FAW 1

 

The first two might make it to completion in this life, but I think a Sea Vixen needed a start thirty years ago.
