I have signed and my mind is already ticking over, top of my list is an ASW platform followed by a Gunship and an unmanned missile based on a manned a/c. I am so looking forward to this.

I'm in. The last one was a lot of fun and I might finally have a use for that ancient Revell Fokker DVII.

Yes

The Hunters I think will be perfect. I have two unstarted kits. Several South American countries flew Hunters, well into the 1980s. One can imagine a Pacific region users group.
I have a concept for a camo scheme as well

Hmm. There are so many to choose from... F19 Lapland Stealth, Finnish MiG-29UB, Tennessee State Militia A7 in the Centennial Flag Scheme, Swedish Bronco FAC, Canadian MiG-39 Ferret, and more.

I think it was in the book Spitfires Over Darwin that I read the RAAF tried to purchase Zeros prior to the outbreak of the war. So I might do one up in RAAF colours.

A couple of my crazier WIFs to share as inspiration/inducers of facepalms:
The plane that answers the question of what if a Dewointine D.510 mated with an ME-262 and lost its windshield before being put into Imperial Estonian service:
And a Hawker Hurricane Mk.2 of the Royal Hawai'ian Air Force:

I'll be building a 1/72 C-47. Not sure if civil or military.

My entry is a TSAf Tennessee State Air Force A7 in the Centennial 1964 paint scheme. Something like this except I will reverse the red and blue. https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/YOkhuuXBC8n6N0aJKs7aaO4YVWHQ29YlHMXXRGQxlA=w1000-h635-no

Well, looks like it's 1 September (or pretty darn close) in Greenwich, so I'm declaring this campaign started!
