Ok, well, she kinda just went together, it was a case of dry fit, that fits really well, glue it. It went together so damn fast i didnt get a chance to get my camera. But i think the canopy is going to take a while.

I'll try a WWII half-track from the 36th (Texas) Infantry Division.  Probably end up with a quad-fifty AAA gun mount, but if I can find photos of a Texas Division infantry half-track, I'll go with that.

Probably can find something from the invasion of Southern France.

This is going to be a fun GB... this is the kit I am going to build.  Remember I am not a sissy like you guys flying planes or driving tanks...

If Manny is really going to build something, I will probably give myself a mohawk haircut... Tongue Tied

Five got airborne and shot down two Zeroes. One pilot, Phil Rasmussen, shot down a Zero with only a 50cal., took approx. 500 hits, and lost his brakes, rudder, and tailwheel. And he did that in his pajamas

I did something similar while just wearing boxer briefs and socks---and this was during a Russian winter...

Put me down on the list Herr Field Marshall. Not sure if I'm doing a P-36, P-40, or my yellow Stearman.  Hmm  Any opinions would be welcome. 

 

 

with pink accents....Whistling

I heard Vance wants in with a Ho-229...Stick out tongue

c

Get it right: Vance is in with an incomplete Ho229, my efforts to sabotage the flying wing program obviously saved many allied aircrew from a horrible fate...

P-40, ala Pearl Harbor markings...you could have been one of those MOJO's who shot a few Vals down during the attack...

 

 

I was thinking the P-36 @ Pearl, make it more of a fair fight. Wink

Maybe---did any P-36's knock down any Jap planes at Pearl?  I thought only 40's did???  The world wonders...
