Crosshairs board game - Download/3D printed

[JGplanes]

As a kid I always remember my Dad and I making up crazy airplane games to play on the checkerboard bedspread with our die cast planes. I was recently looking for something similar that my kids and I could enjoy, and I ran across "Crosshairs" by Stephen Tavener. My kids really enjoyed playing it, so I decided to recreate it with a modern twist.

It was originally based on WWI, but I redesigned a variety of boards (NTTR, Persian Gulf, and Russia), and jets (F-14, F-18, F-5, Mig29, Su-27, Mig21, U-2, SR-71, F-117, B-2). I contacted Stephen, and he graciously allowed me to upload my 3D printed version Thingiverse. If any of you have a 3D printer or really like aviation board games, you may want to check this out. I'm thinking of doing a WWII set based on interest. Let me know what you think...

I didn’t originally have one, but my 15yr old begged me to make one. Of course the F-117 is my personal preference, and I’d like to have a F-35 and F-22.

The Sr-71 is one of my favorites, it’s speed, sleek lines and amazing looks (but mostly it’s speed) all contribute to why I like it.
