First Generation Jet Cook Up

[lastvautour]

Anybody up for an early jet cook up? Aircraft can be any scale but must be listed in the First Generation Jets as defined by Wikipedia.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First-generation_jet_fighter

We need a minimum of one more builder.

PS 11/16/2020 A clarification on which aircraft qualify. Jet bombers are not listed on Wikipedia, however a look at the fighters listed reveal they all entered wide spread service prior to 1955. In future all jets regardless of function may be included as long at they fall into the aforementioned category.

I'm in for sure.
Lots to choose from the list

Sure..why not😋 is there a completion date? As I am not the fastest builder ( or maybe a large project list...)

Farser, our cook ups have no ending dates. You can join any cook up as you see fit.

Seeing that building various models in the same post is confusing hence I have removed the individual builds back to my board and will post only the completed project here. If you wish to see 1st Generation builds they are available at

Correlating my references . I know I have a bit on the the SAAB j-29 . When I find that I will make a decision.

Gordon, your impending Avon Sabre would fit nicely.

My Sea Hawk has the wings are rough cut and the fuselage is close to contour shaping.

Roll out 22 Aug 2020. Home decals with Lifelike extra dark sea gray and Tamiya sky. A joy to build once I figure out how to do the wings.
