OK Stargazer....it's no longer an experimental airplane (sorry Aero-plane....why am I talking like an American?) Anyhow......this is one of the Bell P-52A that was used to defend Wake Island in 1942. At present, the tail panels are all on and am about to add the tails and tailplanes. I love the thing......if only they'd have built them......Bugger!

Sorry mate, it isn't French! Today, another one for Stargazer....this will be US Fighter 5 of 5 for 2010, or...how to butcher a U-2 into something else!
Glenn

Oh yeah, 1/48

Last shot of the Ju-87.....I might do a couple of 'below' shots before I dup it.....but won't be for a while.

Tophe, turning a U-2 into a fighter.....would make it the slowest fighter in history.....no, I'm turning it into a......well, thats for Stargazer to know, and for the rest of you to find out.

...wouldn't that make it a subsonic F-104?

I mean, I read somewhere the U-2 was based on the F-104. Could have been an interweb farce, but I thought I actually read it in a book some time ago.

Yeah, a subsonic F-104....I may as well put a prop in front, right! No, you have to think further afield than that!
Anyhow, to finish this batch, I'm back with civil 2 of 5 for 2010. Now it has wings and you still haven't a clue, have you?

It's not a Grumman?

That was my guess, too.

Ok now I'm really stumped!

Honningstad 5A?

Cheers,

Glenn · January 20, 2010, 06:02:53 PM

Congrats, Chuck......you did it!!!! It had you all going for a time though, what? But yes, a Finnmark.
Glenn

Acree · January 20, 2010, 06:05:48 PM

Anything that looks THAT much like a Goose or Mallard and is NOT a Grumman, can only be a Finnmark!
