Dear Members,
You might recall a few months ago I posted some info about new Replica Guidelines adopted for the site. You can read the post here: http://www.airfighters.com/forums.php?m=posts&q=1240 Recently, we've had a few uploads of full-scale models which we have denied into the database simply because they are not real aircraft and have no military history whatsoever. However, a few have crept into the database either because the uploader didn't know it was a full-scale model or the screener didn't know. I've recently been in discussion with Joop de Groot and Rinze de Vries about possibly opening up the database to full-scale models based on historical reasons. Here's what Rinze had to say and I think he has a very valid point: Quote I'm a little concerned with the handling of the registration and construction numbers. But, we can accommodate these models in a new category. What do you guys think? Please let us know your thoughts. Thanks, Ray -Ray |

I would like to see this new catagory but as you stated in your remark it is hardly possible to put a c/n or a serial on these aircraft. Maybe it is possible to list them by location and memorialname instead of serial and or c/n.

This problem could be solved by entering just the main aircraft type and serial and leaving c/n blank. In the monument has no serial applied, than '***' would do, I think.

Anybody else wants to chime in? I'd be nice to get input from a few people. Thanks.

I would say no and would prefer to stay with the old Replica Guidelines.
In my opinion there are already too many warbirds on the site, and this new category would open even more doors for things that are not really "airfighters". Go out and do not look for memorials, go out and look for new active military aircraft to shoot! ::thumb_grin} Andreas Regards |
