Jim looked pleased when this was presented to him. His lecture about his piloting experience with the P-38 in WWII was incredible. He was a POW and escaped as well. Truly a remarkable man.

Thanks Villiers! The spinning propellers are my first attempt at that effect. They do look pretty neat in person. This is model is going to be presented to Jim Stark a WWII P-38L pilot who flew in Europe in1944 in the 429 Fighter Squadron. He is scheduled to speak to out local club in December. It's an attempt at a quick build...

I added an image of Jim, the pilot of this particular aircraft, when it was presented to him in December 2022. His pleased face made it all worth it. I also added a photo in training with the P-38 before shipping to Europe to fly the modeled aircraft. I'll include a link to his lecture for those interested. It is truly remarkable. Youtube Video
