Hey Sigman

Yes I have in fact that was the first book on model building that I got. Unfortunetly his model has little imperfections that I noticed, and alos the fact that it looks like the Lady Be Good, but his model is missing some key things that are quite evident on her.

Check your local library. There is a book out titled "The Lady Be Good" (sorry, but I forget the author) It has some excellent pictures of the Lady from different angles.
And the book itself is an utterly fascinating read of one of the strangest stories of the war. You'll like it.

The July issue of Aviation History has an article on the Lady Be Good. It has a couple of useful reference notes at the end of the article. Cool [8D]

Keep an eye on the History Channel for the episode of "Secrets of WW2" about the Lady Be Good. It showed extensive film footage of the wrecksite from begining to a couple of still shots of what they think was the Lady in a Libyan salvage yard.
