Howdy Richard,

Well actually I got the model today from the mailman, I bought it on ebay for $13 I believe which is a real steal. Lindberg made the model as part of their classic replica series which included aircraft like the bristol bulldog (which I have), The Steerman PT-17 (which i have 5 of) and the curtis P6E (which I have two of). There were other aircraft in the series.
The Hu-16 Albatross I built and showed here in USCG markings was part of the Revell "history makers" series. I think the two companies were really competing at that time, The revell History makers also has some neat models like the "Bomarc" and nike-ajax and snark and regulus missiles all of which i have but have yet to build. It also includes other aircraft like chuck yeagers Bell X-5 which I also have to build and others.
However as these kits are becoming abit more rare, I should probably try to just hang onto them........naw.......I will build em


anyway, thanks for the comments,

have a good evening,

Greg
