Just found this. Good job! I was planning on doing this will the same kit, although I had a hard time getting figures for the pilots. What figures did you use there?

Thanks guys. Austin, the figures were made up of a mixture of bits. I'm not 100% sure about the pilots but I think they were old Matchbox or more likely Airfix figures with the heads from the Italeri NATO pilots set 1246 (if you look here plasticsoldierreview.com/Review.aspx?id=603, it's the bottom row extreme left guy I think). The gunners heads were from ground crew in that set too. The port gunner's body is from the Caesar Modern US Army set H030. The starboard gunner's torso is from a SAW gunner in the Revell US Infantry set 02520. I'm not sure where his legs came from! If I was to do it again I'd give the gunners proper helmets as well instead of just headsets.

My proposal is to add some shiny varnish, but apart from that it's a very cool idea and build 👍
