Quota;
The Helldiver is pretty neat, it had a third line to pull and release a flat metal spring to eject the pilot w/ parachute. Now that sounds cool I would love to have had seen that in action ! Huh...

Guess could build that in to a balsa hollow body , Let him out hi and take him out on the next round Laughing

That is a nice looking Stuka , Very Happy

Yes, the antenna was red, like a poor hair dye job it's red at the roots.

I was going to buy one of those ebay repro's but I thought I could do a better job by making one myself. Now I don't have to.

It's funny what you find on garage floors, I'm always blowing gaskets out of cylinders with compressed air.

I hear you !! great you have the correct one , I brush clean most cylinders after getting them unstuck and have got hd. gaskets hooked on a 4" brush Embarassed

not good , I did save a couple but had to order 20 to get caught up . really got my goat after the third time , had to have a conversation with self !!! DAMMIT!

I am doing better now though only one now and then tongue
