SB20 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 Think I'll just go ahead and put mine in the trash. This is remarkable looking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aircommando130 Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 WOW! That's awesome! I can almost feel the heat and humidity of the South Pacific island (I spent 4 years on Okinawa). Do you have any close ups of the 8 gun nose bays? I have the strafer kit too and want to build it similar to yours. Cheers Ron Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeepsGunsTanks Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 For some fun insider history on these aircraft and how they came to be, try and find a copy of a book called, "The Saga of Pappy Gunn, by General George C Kenney, and his book called General Kenney's Report linked from my site. Both are great reads, and there was a lot of trail and error that went into the all gun nose B-25s, and they had to send Gunn to North American to convince him the modifications that were flying in combat could actually be done.

nmayhew Posted November 10, 2020 Share Posted November 10, 2020 That’s pretty stunning! epically good! one question: should there be ‘smoke’ etc coming from those vents in the wings? I only ask because that’s a common mistake we see on B-17s, and I am surmising the engine / vent set-up may be similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
