Hi Guys, Some very basic rules. Its all about Flying Boats / Float Planes from 1903 to the present day. My definitions would be as follows. 1. Flying Boat, an aircraft whose fuselage comes into contact with the water as in a boat for take off and landings. 2. Float Plane, basically a land based aircraft whose fuselage is kept out of the water and the aircraft is supported on a number of floats. Any queries just ask. I will post some examples shortly. Cheers Joe M Edited by Joseph M, Mar 24 2017, 12:01 AM.

Joe, I'm hoping to build more than one kit for the GB. One of the lads has a kit part started he can swap me. Is a part started kit ok to enter? Cheers |

Just to let folks know:- There is a similar group build starting over on Britmodeller on September 2nd, and going through to January 6th 2018. See here:- http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/235009978-flying-boats-and-float-planes-gb/ So it is possible, since ours goes through until December 3rd, for someone to do a parallel entry in both group builds.

And it will be mine now also. (So that I will have no excuse for not finishing the "what-if" GB Irish Mustang by the end date, as well as my Italian jet in the "prototypes" Gb over on britmodeller as well...) Philip Edited by Prenton, Jul 4 2017, 02:03 PM.
