fjaweijfopi4j48 Posted December 15, 2018 Share Posted December 15, 2018 A second Travel Air racer, also from 5 years ago. (The first is here: There were five Travel Air Mystery Ships built. Many went through several paint scheme iterations and a few minor aspect modifications, giving us modelers a pretty wide field of options regarding our personal choices. I won’t abound here in their story which can be easily found in good publications, the Net, the Akasha Chronicles and your crystal ball. As I said before, Skyways # 102 April 2013 has an article on the Mystery Ship that will give you a good idea. I have built as you know a model of Hawks’ RN1313 posted here, and I went for another. Since I had the wood masters for the spats and fuselage from the first model the work was not as hard. Having also already figured out the engineering, things went relatively easy. The possibility of a new livery was a breath of fresh air (I usuallydon't like to make the same model twice) and some research and additional work was done to represent it correctly. Here is as usual the photographic record. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pity we can't say the same about the practices of the oil industry in general....sigh... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
