And don't forget, it's not only bombers, but after discussion it was extended to include any aeroplane in military service as long as it has a minimum of four engines. Be they with propeller or paraffin burners, or both...

Well I do have a B24 in the stash, but I bought some PE for it - I have no PE bending tool though so may need to visit the shop...

Would a He 177 qualify? Technically it does have 4 engines.....
I would say yes Patrick.I think this question was asked when the idea of this sig was suggested last year.

I'd like to take part in this but as you can probably tell from my delayed Dakota's there is no chance of me keeping to this schedule.

I've never really been interested in some of these early Cold War US jets but just lately my head is being turned by the classic look of these old jets so I'm looking forward to your build......there's no pressure!
