Was watching some History channel docs on the Pacific last night. Lots of Hellcats. ...9-1 kill to loss ratio, not bad for a small plane. Battle of Midway was very interesting too. Just reminded me of the plane your building.

Hiya Robbo ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) . Been catching up on yer builds over lunch today, the frame and pipes look fantastic ![8-)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cool.png) . Nice start on the 'cat too. You're right they made a big hole in the sky where the zeros were.... That's what happens went you hit a plane with no fuel tank armour with 6x.50 cals ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png)
