“Banana Wars” DH-4B
Airco DH-4B "Liberty"

A ZEBRA STRIPED "DO-27 GRZIMEK" IN 132 SCALE.

My FIST LOCKHEED SUPER CONSETALLATION.
Revell made a very nice 1/144th scale kit of this big 4 engine airplane so I bought two different kits. One kit was made to represent an "USAF-MATS" plane while the other kit represented a commercial airline, namely [...]
TAMIYA 1:48 F4U-1a Corsair
