B-29 in Europe

[PR19_Kit]

Dear, oh dear........... <sigh>

The T-34 was the large 7500 hp turbo-prop built by Pratt & Whitney that powered the later versions of the B-30, together with the C-133 Cargomaster, as well as the R7V-2 that JCF mentioned.

The idea of a Washington sub hunter is something I will build using a 1/72 B-29,might change the engines to Griffon and add a pair of auxiliary jet pods from a B-47 aftermarket kit.
I have fitted Griffon engines to a C-69 Heller 1/72,and named it the "Connie Francis ".Painted mat black with red decals from the Airfix RB-57A .
