radio antenna for Flying Tiger P-40
Posted by davenport_r on Thursday, April 9, 2020 10:40 AM

I'm working on P-40 #68 of Charles Holder.  The few photos I find don't clearly show the antenna wire/connections on the plane.  Was it the standard for P-40 of the time, i.e., behind cockpit to tail, to both wingtips?  Can anyone offer guidance?

Thanks.

It was referenced in an interesting discussion on the Britmodeller forum here.

Cheers
