Also enlisted. Date is just perfect, time to finish other projects.
My entry will be the Mig 19 from Trumpeter with some additional set from SBS in 1/48 scale.

Howdy Y'all
I enlisted tonight. Like I've said I'll be building Tamiya's F4D-1 Skyray in 1/48 scale. I just bought an Eduard P.E. set a couple of weeks ago from EBay.
I'll try to finish a record (for me) 3 airplane models this year:
1. I-16 Type 24 for the Soviet Phoenix Campaign
2. P5M Marlin for the Flying Boat Campaign
3. F4D-1 Skyray for the 2nd Generation Jets Campaign
We'll see which one ends up in the Hanger Queen 7 Campaign
Take care,
Don "Lakota"

I'm definitely in! I'm of a Saab roll right now, and this campaign would be perfect for my planned J 35F Draken in 1/48!

Cheers! PolarBear

I'm in with either a Classic AirFrames F5A or a Kinetic F5B. I will probably go with the F5B as it is the Canadian Air Force version.

So an F3H Demon would qualify, correct? First deployed in 1956, finished by 1964. I'm just poking through my stash to see what I have on hand for this build. I've got a few choices

Hi John,
I am just searching my stash. Would an A-4C Skyhawk fit in the campaign?

Hi Oliver,
I would have too say probably not, as its classed as an attack aircraft.

Looks like this one is shaping up nicely. Don't forget to put together a campaign ribbon, though!

would a Hawker Hunter qualify? Specifically a FGA.9, I have the Revell 1/32 in the stash and I'm looking for an excuse to build it!
If not, how about a MiG-21bis? Or is that a G3 kite?
If either of those fits the bill, I'll sign up!
There's nothing else suitable in the stash, it's mostly WW11 or later Cold War . . .

Almost time to launch on this one, but (nudge, nudge) still no ribbon.

Verdict on CF-100, F2H3, Late model F-89's, Su-15 and Tu-128?

Does the plane need to be in period markings? I have few options, and they are all built in early 60's, but some would be in 80's markings. For example German Navy F-104G in grey with orange wingtip tanks. "No" is also good answer, just need a clarification
