Interesting! I've had a partially started 1/32 RF-4C in my collection for more years than I care to remember. This just may be the excuse i need to haul it out and finish it.

nice one jessie.

i bought a book recently called "eyes of the raf" it covers aircraft from ww1 all the way upto the modern jets, and has great pictures of the cameras as well as the images they took and the aircraft used.

Paul, you can count me in.

I've had a slow creep over to the side of P/R with my builds of Predator and Reaper, now I have just cut plastic on a U-2 and added a Canberra PR9, RB-57 and Global Hawk to the stash with a SR-71 on order.

Any one know of a RB-45 Tornado in 1/48?

We can see you!

The Last PRU Campaign was back in 2008 Paparazzi Club so I can't see why we can't have another one if there's enough interest

I am curious as to the parameters to this campaign. Can any aircraft which performed this role be included within this campaign? Tactical and or surveillance roles. Thanks for the definition.

i would say anything that has a camera installed ... it covers everything, from ww1 upto the present day including unmanned/remote controlled aircraft.

Paul, would a fictional (supposed) aircraft like the Testors SR75 and Thunderdart be included? I have a hanger queen Thunderdart and unbuilt SR75. It is a big model.

Have an SR-71 in the stash to contribute to this definitely, but am interested to know if this campaign would include all recon aircraft including types such as seaplane scouts from WWII.

Count me in, but it would definately have to be 2014, as I'm already committed to a lot this year. I have a special hobby spitfire PR.10 in the stash in glorious pink! But I would also like to do a fujimi RF-4E phantom.
