Another one just finished. I used the new P-51 "Red Tail" , which is a beautifully detailed aircraft, and the K&C Me 262. The 332nd fighter group destroyed three ME 262s on 24 March 1945. They were escorting the 250 B-17s of the 463rd Bomb Group on a raid to destroy the Daimler-Benz tank factory outside of Berlin. I love the view from the tail gunner's seat as he watches the split second action go by.
Enjoy,
Steve

I see you`re from California... Well, with these skills, I`d say you`re more specifically from Hollywood! Great job!{bravo}}
 
Yes, remember the Lucas movie. Today's the day. May the fourth be with you!
 
Awesome :)


Does anyone know of a link between the "42" on this P51 (which I know is based on a actual P51) and the jersey number "42" for Jackie Robinson? I would imagine K&C choose it among all the other Redtail specific P51s to model for that reason but I am not sure. Either way I think it pretty cool that it shares that number.
