Hi
Should we rename this Campaign to:- Douglas Parade of Propeller Power.?
It would reflect the campaign better.
Ok by me.

Hi Richard
Ive got the title change on this thread and also popped over onto the submitted proposal and changed the title, dates and added the list of possible build candidates. It is all set and ready to go live once you get the 10 interest, which hopefully will be very soon

Well, I just ordered a MiniWing Skyraider from RarePlane. So I'll just go and enlist. If we can make this campaign happen, it should be interesting.

How about a Prop in the middle of the O in Douglas?
Posted: Sunday, December 30, 2012 - 10:03 AM UTC
Just signed up. I have no idea what to build, but at least I have a skyrider as a backup in my stash if nothing else.

Plenty of time and choice.

I got the MiniWing Skytaider yesterday. This should be a learning experience for me. But you know what they say: No guts, no fried chicken. Now, let's see how long it'll take to build the wee beast. Happy Gluing, JT
