Hi guys
Yeah, we've got plenty of campaigns now and in the future, but would any of you be interested in a delt wing jets campaign starting in late 2011? There are lots of delta wing models produced so finding something to build shouldn't be hard.

Here's a partial list of planes that would fit this catagory.

Hi all!
Lots to choose from, so It´ll be hard to decide!
SAAB J-35, Mirage III, Mirage 2000 and B-58 Hustler comes to mind, but there´s so many cool deltas out there!
Needless to say that I´m in on this!
Cheers!

That's 5 of us. Let me leave the bait out a while longer and see what happens. Where is Polarbear? I thought he'd be all over this just to have a reason to build another Saab.

Herman, brother, just because it's you I'll have a go at this. I think I'll try to find a Mirage in RAAF markings if we get to green light.

I'd be interested as well. I'd also like to mention that you should include the "tailed" deltas (Mig 21, Su-9,11,15) as well as the "tailess" and the ones with canards. Just my opinion.

I don't see any reason to not allow "tailed" planes or ones sporting canards. As long as it wears delta wings it would fall into the right catagory.

Looks like we have the required ten enlisted. I'll type up campaign submit form sometime soon and see if we can get this off the ground. Anyone else wants to jump on board just give a shout.

I like the concept! Do the colors have a particular significance?

Actually, I'm a 33rd degree free mason and we love triangles.

No, actually I was looking at all the ribbons on my profile page and noticed I didn't have alot of blue. It's just an idea, you guys are more than welcome to come up with something better.

ps: NOT a free mason

Hey Drabslab, there are many campaigns indeed. However, there is only ONE Delta wing campaign.

Any excuse to build a jet is a good excuse.

Hi folks,
Really tempting campaign!
I'll thinking of a Saab Viggen but the livery looks like a nightmare... Maybe a weathered Kfir? Or an Argentinian Mirage III? So many choices...
Start date in the second half of 2011 would really suit- a lot of recently joined campaigns!
