Hi, as the title suggests Im looking for any photos of the underside windows of a Brewster Buffalo. Does anyone have anything in their collections?

 

Cheers

Scale Models February 1973 (?), the one with the Arthur Bentley Tempest feature - I am pretty sure this issue has a review of the Airfix kit, and the pics include one of the window. @Richard Humm has an index, or possibly/probaby  at Aeroflight.

Yes, but I'll have to scan later and send to you, can't upload pictures from my computer.  The ventral window (in the USN Erection & Maintenance Manual, the 'bomb-aiming window') is on all versions except the F2A-3 (where an extra fuel tank blocked the view).  The first variant. the F2A-1/Model 239, had the window but the carbon monoxide vents were located on the aft fuselage; for all subsequent variants, the vents were at the rear of the ventral window.  In Finnish service there was progressive plating over as spare parts were no readily available.

Thanks for every ones input, jimmaas came through with picture of exactly what I needed. 

 

Many thanks
