Guys,
this is an idea I have been toying with for a while, starting up a SIG in IPMS UK for the F-86 sabre.
Traditionally single aircraft SIGs sometime dont have enough support. However the Hawk guys seem to be doing OK so I thought to give this a whirl?
The F-86 Sabre was used throughout the western world and I think it could make an interesting display.
The aim would be to start this year with the aim of displaying at Telford in 2012 when we can get organised.
Any IPMS members up for this?
Julien

Sounds like a good idea Julien - count me in.

Julian, should the title of this thread read IPMS UK F-86 Sabre SIG?

I may well be interested, particularly when I come to build the 6 (at the last count) Sabres of varying descriptions in the loft. Now about those wings ...

Happy to report that following a friendly chat with Julien at the Shuttleworth Show, the Sabre SIG is now officially forming. This was while we were browsing the traders wares, and from that, it's clear that he knows his Sabre kits - more specifically, the ones to avoid!
I'll be sending Julien the paperwork this week and with any luck, we should see a small but neat display alongside the Ipswich stand if Richard K can shoehorn that into the display plan.
So, please do drop Julien a PM pronto, before he does... I'll be supplying the SAAF ones for starters. And Mike, yes, we did talk 6/3 wings - (but not for too long)...!
cheers
Phil

Julien, if the SIG takes off (excuse the pun), please let me know and I'll organize a room on the forum for you.
