  1. Despite it being a plane from the 50's it was another beauty!

  2. This one sure is different from the others in the set. It is the only parasol wing airplane. It is an attractive glider but it always looks a little silly to me because of how low the wing is.

  3. It did fly a long distance, so I guess the parasol wing actually helped with lift, plus with the propeller at the front free spinning and giving extra thrust, I guess it was one of those that was a gap filler, but it would have been nice in putting the P-38 back in, but again I suppose it was just a nice edition all the same!

  4. I have thought of tracing this one onto a sheet of styrofoam and making my own bi-plane design. That could be interesting!
