email to you, Mike. I’m building that very aircraft in 1/72 from airfix/frog/amt/ h*ll.
If you have any weapons bay shots, would be much appreciated. I’ve got some good interior B-24 and B-25 shots if you like.
I CAN GET MORE PHOTOS OF IT I AM AT THE BASE OFTEN WILL TAKE SOME FOR YOU I HAVE THE FROG KIT IT IS A BIT OF A NASTY KIT VERY WARPED.
Thanks, or if you can any info the crew might have about weapons bay loads.
Its a bear, because everything is supposed to move and therefore is out of scale, plus it’s got more and bigger rivets than a Beyer Garratt!
But I have some beautiful castle and springbok decals, can’t wait to finish.
Check/turn off the caps key. It usually means you are yelling.[#toast]

Mike
hi mike, seeing as your having trouble in posting the pictures and would love every one to see them i’ve put them up just for you [bow] some great detail shots too…
The airframe is about to time out as well, so she’ll be retired as well very soon.
