scottiques Posted December 23, 2020 Share #1 Posted December 23, 2020 I have a lot of these and now just add ones that are inexpensive or that have features, I don't already have. I have several P-38 aircraft with plexiglass propeller blades, but this is the first with the cockpit canopy made out of a piece of plexiglass. The craftsman really shows his skill in this one-- the solder line is small and expertly completed. Ashtray base is 105 shell. Scott Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

USMC_ROB Posted December 24, 2020 Share #3 Posted December 24, 2020 Very nice. Always enjoy seeing the elaborate transformations into planes and such. First time I ever saw the canopy made of plexiglass. Thank you for sharing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kansas Raider Posted January 5, 2021 Share #7 Posted January 5, 2021 He was part of the ground crew of the 343rd for 2nd Lt. James C. McVey. He is buried In Kechi, Kansas. I wonder how many of these planes he made? Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11thcavsniper Posted January 5, 2021 Share #8 Posted January 5, 2021 I picked this one at an Estate Farm sale here in North Dakota in the early 70's. Been on my desk ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
