I need some help on a possible project...

You can do Lindbergs 1/48 Stinson Station Wagon.  

But that kit will be hard to find.  CAP did you cubs, however.

CAP used many different civil aircraft.  Scalemates shows a 1/48 Stinson Reliant available by AMT and ESCI.  There is also the Hobbycraft 1/48 Cub which I just traded for from a friend as he wanted my Revell 1/32 Super Cub.  Find them on Ebay.

Hmmm. It does kinda look like a Cub. I think the problem will be making it a 2 seater and a Reliant won't work because of the radial engine, same as the wagon. I did scare up some guys blog with his Stinson 105 from some Mexican company called Pegaso.

I'll keep looking.

Here's the link to that dudes page.

CAP used Reliants also as with 10 seconds of googling, there is a color shot of a SR-5 in CAP colors.

CAP used almost any civilian plane:

Thanks for the help so far.  Yeah, we used pretty much we could het our hands on, though a lot of what I'm seeing of the Coastal Patrol Bases are the Stinsons.  I think my first step needs to be finding the plane/pilot I want to depict, which will mean some emails and phone calls.  I may move the plane from a water landing back into the air, as kind of an "eternal patrol" thing.  What do you guys think?  Raymond  

If I remember right, Pegaso used to use early revell  and maybe monogram molds.  I first came across them in the mid 70s so I can't say for sure if they are even still in business.

Dumas actually makes a Voyager now that I think about it.   If I remember correctly, it's 1/23 scale.   Someone is building one in my group

I'll check it out.  The only problem is that the museum limits planes to 1/32.  If I can get my hands on one, and given the subject, they might make an exception.  I don't know.  Like I said, I still have a lot of hoops to jump through on this one.  But that's okay.  The research is half the fun, and I have a bunch of good Cadets and some pretty smart adults that can help me out of this one.  Including some people with access to national archives....  Time to go to work.......  Raymond

You mentioned a U-Boat in the distance, Mirage makes pretty decent ones in 1/350 that are about 8 inches long for Around $10-$15 that come with PE if you want something that large.  You'd probably need some form of forced perspective though (like viewing from one direction).
