Has anybody seen this........

If anyone read the whole article thoroughly they'd know the difference between the 80% and the 90% is the passenger tandem seat.

If he built a replica 100% You'd be into it $millions and he would be out of business. By his (Sullivan's) own words.

To be honest, I doubt most here would even know how to start a Merlin engine.

P-51 was the best Escort Fighter indeed it was what the bombers needed by their side, but not the best fighter in overall. I can name more examples, Spitfire was the best Interceptor of World War 2, but it couldnt do the task of the P-51 escorting bombers into center Germany and return. Did the P-51 have the same striking power to knock out Ground Targets (armor convoys) and Locomotives like the Hawker Typhoons did? or did it have the ability to butcher down Bombers out of the skies like the FW190 did?

the Fact is NO Fighter won any WAR. The key to succes is to have a variety of aircraft everyone furfilling its Role. but even that doesnt win the war, but what it did by winning the battle for the sky it has been of great importance to win World War 2.

In actuality, the aircraft just transported the bombs/shells, The Bombs and shells won the war for aircraft. Because, the plains were just plains without Ammo.

I like the Hawker Hurricane MkI. Not as good as the Bf-109E during the Battle of Britain, but it had nice lines, and I like the combination of stressed skin and fabric covering.

A nice 120 to 150 inch wingspan R/C model would be cool too. If I could just find plans for it.

I think August was kidding (Subman sadly was not), got to be a veteran of the UBI forums to know why.

Otherwise I agree with your post.
