I didn't know about the Navy one either until I was asking about the one used by the Embassy Air Attache over at LSP. I had heard about the one flown by the Air Attache but also heard that there weren't any photographs.
I imagine there have been multiple runway extensions at Hagerstown since the late '40s. When we drive up to PA to visit, we drive right past the western end of the main runway, Interstate 81, and now I wonder how far in to where it's buried.
I had picked up an 'Overtrees' kit of the Bf 108 because I know I wanted to model the aircraft with U.S. Navy on it.
I've been a little slow, but I did assemble the 'Space' IP.
I've done some painting in the interior but was waiting for a book that arrived today before proceeding.
This aircraft seems to have been shipped to the US and inspected by Fairchild at their facility in Hagerstown, MD. And after the war, when I guess it wasn't needed anymore, buried under a runway expansion at Hagerstown.

Thank you for the offer. I have the prop, oil coolers, landing gear, and 'Space' cockpit parts (IP, belts, etc.) I thought I would create a set of masks for cutting on my Cameo.
I should probably start a thread here too.

That is really nice! I'm working on a Bf108 at the moment, but it won't be as detailed. I need to go back through this thread to glean build information.
