I got this out of the stash, it’s missing one propeller and shaft, but I think I know where it is. If not, I have plenty that can be reshaped to match the original. I no longer have the box, it was too far gone, but I have a scan somewhere of the back. I am going to do Yankee Doodle from the 97th BG 8th AAF. Ages ago I converted a Hasegawa B-17F to an E and used the Suzy Q markings from the FROG kit. I will use the kit decals and this will be primarily OOB. This kit isn’t as bad as the old Revell or Airfix, but still has some quirks. I will try and use vintage Humbrol and some vintage glues to try and get as close to what I did in the 70’s when I built it and gave it to my youngest brother. (It was also Yankee Doodle). Jeff

I have started my entry which is the Academy B-17E (Fortress II boxing). I gave the decals away some time ago but have sourced a set from a Frog kit. It started as an OOB build but I have already drilled out the turbocharger intakes on one wing and started to box them in. Pictures of progress to follow soon.
