As far as I'm aware yes Kit. It's one of the NACA test fits when the aircraft were handed over to them

The Dryden Flight Research Center image archives are good place for photo's although this configuration is not shown:

No, it was a pod that housed up to eight machine guns for the ground attack role.

They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

How long before someone makes a conversion kit to back-date it to the pusher prop version?  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage

That's good news, it's a lovely little kit and has loads of Whiff potential.  :thumbsup:

I have a Heller J-21 in the stash that I probably won't build, if anyone is after one let me know.

Oh yeah! Like the planned J 21B, with bubble hood and more powerful engine (DB 605E or RR Griffon)

Cheers,

Must, then, my projects bend to the iron yoke of a mechanical system? Is my soaring spirit to be chained down to the snail's pace of matter?
