Shot down over the French coast but limped home to Herr O'Briens panel and paint and now for some magic will be as good as new.
More pics to follow when complete,and was bought damaged at a discount price before all the drama,s start about FIGARTI and 1st one ive seen damaged,and seeing by the way its been made this one must of taken a beating as its a sturdy plane to hold.
