P-59A Posted January 13 Author Share #13 Posted January 13 On a side note, from time to time at a crash site once in a blue moon we have found the names of of people who put these together written in pencil on parts. We think it was a part of quality control as no message was sent and the parts faced another part and would not have been seen by anyone. Link to post Share on other sites

Hi David, apologies for the misunderstanding about my desire to see comparable quality WWII Jeep photos as the excellent detailed aircraft ones you posted. I have added our exchange of posts from the Jeep photo thread you have started in the vehicle section so that it can be seen that I wasn't criticising in any way your thread here in the aircraft section. cheers and thanks again for your aircraft and vehicle photo threads. lewis. . .
