What are you building for Expo 2026?

[BradG]

10 months to go, so you know, it's finger removal time.

What will you have finished for Airliners and Non Military Aircraft categories? I have no decided what airliner to build but I'm doing one of these in 1/48 for Non Military.

I have a U.S.Navy Convair 880 Tanker underway....but if it decided that airliners with military markings are no longer eligible for the Airliner category, then I won't be entering it.

I'll be looking forward to it Ray, some thing different and VERY eligible according to the EXPO Handbook

ME18 - Civil Airliners - Open Not limited by scale.

Civil Airliner - Aircraft in an operating Airliner or Commercial Livery.

Airliner Derivatives – May pertain to civil airliners in military or government service.

An OPEN category and not subject to Out of Box rules.

I am not sure at this stage, I just finished the Falcon 20 but it will have to go in the Small jets category.

My recently almost finished B747-8i needs replacement decals and right wing repaint.

[BradG]

A Falcon 20 would fit into Non-Military Aircraft if it has a civilian registration on it.

Probably not....

Considering they missed the helo in Civil aircraft despite it even placing, I think you could enter it in AFV's and no one would notice.

Only 6 months to go.
It would be nice to see some more entries in this category for Expo 26.
There has been a bit of confusion about eligibility. It's not my field of interest but looking at the handbook shows that the airliner category includes derivatives of airliners, which may have military markings and still be okay in this category.

[RayS]

I have a few shelf queens that need finishing if I wasn't distracted by other new builds.

If I attend I am sure to enter something in airliners and civil categories.
