JohnHaa Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Dear modellers, Russ c showed his excellent B-25J in RNEIAAF colours. Years ago I build the same model in a later version, I modified it with a solid nose. I used a piece of solid wood, sanding and filing it in shape. Enjoy the picture !

Toryu Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Great B-25 John. I like the bare metal parts on the camouflaged airframe. I guess replacement parts were taken to build an airworthy machine. Do you know anything about the history of these Dutch Mitchells? Where they USAAF surplus?

Gary Brantley Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 That's a very cool B25 John! 😎 As noted, the bare metal nose just looks great on there.Oh man, all these great B-25s are sure inspiring; please keep 'em coming!😀 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnHaa Posted September 28, 2019 Author Share Posted September 28, 2019 Thanks all for the comments. I add some explanation about the finish of this plane. As far as I know the green paint was to be removed, war was over and this was done during maintenance etc. I found a comprenhesive article here: https://www.ipms.nl/artikelen/nedmil-luchtvaart/vliegtuigen-n/vliegtuigen-n-northam-b25/2581-vliegtuigen-n-northam-b25-5-engels Cheers, JohnHaa 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
