Kind of weird that there's no plastic J-3 models, isn't it?

Thats a very good deed there, Raymond.Yes

 Modeling is an excuse to buy books.

Some of you may remember me talking about this a few weeks back. Basically, CAP officially started just six days prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor. They flew some very dangerous missions, often times knowing there would be little to no hope of rescue if they went down, for no other reason than their country needed them. By wars end, sixty-five had paid the ultimate sacrifice. I am wanted my Squadron to present a memorial, on behalf of the CAP, hopefully to the U.S.S. Lexington Fine Scale Model Museum in Corpus Christy, Texas. I still have several hoops to go through, but I finally landed on the kit. It resembles both the Cubs and Stinson Voyagers closely... So, I'll probably wrap up the F/A-18 while I'm working on this. I've actually got order a new canopy for the Hornet (oops). But here's pick one, of what I am sure will be a very interesting work in progress.... BTW, Yeah, I could've got it cheaper I'm sure, but I'm a firm believer in supporting your local hobby shop when you can. Raymond
