Gigant Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Nice weathering on the overall finish. By the way, what is the history behind that particular paint and marking combination? For instance, the dark blue circle on the upper right wing. Was this a PAC U S Marine or Navy Wildcat? red baron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeC Posted April 17, 2018 Share Posted April 17, 2018 Nicely done. I'd also be interested to know the story behind the markings. red baron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coogrfan Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 (edited) As we say here in Texas, that Wildcat has been rode hard and put away wet. Well done. Edited April 18, 2018 by coogrfan red baron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aircommando130 Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 WOW! Well worn Wildcat. Really like the fading on the paint and grime around the engine and the bright spot where the old insignia was removed. Hopefully the students graduated from the war weary Wildcats and got to fly the new Hellcat from carriers in the Pacific! red baron 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
