Hmmm...?

That is beautiful, and so do-able. Maybe stick a B6N2 cowling on the front for that muscle look.

Oh!? Wasn't aware of that, but it's a VERY nice combo that makes me try to get hands on a Parc or Amodel kit...

Mind you, where is the US Navy IAR-80 ?
I always thought it look rather like the F4U Corsair, maybe it is the canopy and a radial engine.

Nice looking profile tho !

Found at the Warbird Information eXchange in a thread about the Walter Soplata collection, prompted by a board member's diorama build of some of the aircraft: a Zwillinged big-cockpit Skyraider!!
