|  Grumman Duck
Howdy Guys, Ok, I am on vacation (holiday as you say in the UK) this week and have already been busy with several models at one time. However, there was one that I really wanted to complete this week and this is it. Glencoe models GRUMMAN J2F2 "DUCK" amphibious biplane. This aircraft was first flown in the 1930's, but seeing a need for recon and SAR as well as ASW during the war, the duck was used in all of the above roles. This model is a limited run re release of this aircraft with working landing gear. It is not exactly 1:48th scale, but is advertised on the box as such....its really somewhere around 1:54th scale I think. Anyway, here she is:      It hasnt rained in several days, so the water puddle in which I photographed the Japanese "Rufe" is nowhere to be found lol. But I think the two would look good in a puddle together lol. Have a good day, Greg |
