a) It's only a suggestion/proposal/offer/proposition/nomination...
b) Speer?! No, it's HRH Prince Philip, Duke of errrr... Willy Messerschmitt, of course.

Good job, Airfixer! Thumbs up!

Okay, so the one S in an SS Rune is gonna be offensive but the swastikas on the tails of the 109s aren't? Seriously, have we given in to the PC police or what?

If you ever display your 109 in Germany you might be expected to mask of the swastikas. And the Sig rune gets the same treatment over there.
I personally do not think that censorship of symbols is a constructive way of displaying history. And I am happy to live in a country where no such censorship excists. But for those living in Germany and several other countries this is the reality of their criminal law.

Borg is absolutely correct here.

Stating that there obviously is the "need" to re-discuss such things again and again is the reason why I tend not to support a GB banner that comprises such Nazi symbols. In my opinion the focus should be on the idea of an GB, not on the banner that is.

Well my plan at the moment is to keep it open for submissions and we can do a vote when the start date draws near. I like yours Airfixer...thanks for submitting!

DITTO...VANCE hasn't even submitted his yet...

[VanceCrozier]

Messeschmitt GB time!

I've got options. I'm in.

[BorgR3mc0]

Comments, suggestions?

I like that first one.

Actually you guys will be getting a triple dip from me. I've had this project planned for a little while. I'll be building the Eduard Profipack G-6 along with the Otaki G-6 and Revell G-10 and using a lot of the extra bits in the profipack to spruce up the other two kits. This GB just happened to come along at the perfect time!
