So whatever happened to the would-be group build? As RJ said, other sites do them a lot (ARC, Britmodeller, etc) - they are quite good fun, but you need a window of about 6-8 months so that everyone has a reasonable chance of completing something. The "search and rescue" idea of Barry's sounds quite good, as you could include wheeled vehicles, boats and aircraft (although I presently have nothing in my stash that would be suitable).

We had a "Black" group build at my local club a few weeks ago, so I entered with a Beaufighter Nightfighter and simultaneously entered Britmodeller's "90 Years of the RAF" GB. (I just put the pics in my Gallery if you want a quick look). The Gladiator you'll also see there was from a previous group build on ARC entitled "North Africa and Mediterranean".
