Administrators Fran Posted August 26, 2022 Administrators Share Posted August 26, 2022 I build this one for SAM … I used Eduard details set (all of them), quickboos engines and guns and FoxBot decals, that has some fantastic schemes for the B.25 in 1:48 and I felt in love by one… Casper`s Flash… The only thing I found about it on the web site as a post in the picture of it in Pinterest with the follow comment: “Casper's Flash was one of the planes my grandfather flew on in WWII. They ended up crashlanding this plane on the island of Angar in the Palua Group during a severe storm. My grandfather is pictured in the far upper right, with his pilot Art Baker next to him. I don't know the names of the others but the guys in the lower row were the group crew mechanics on Pelelei. To my knowledge, the plane is still located on Pelelei either pushed off into the ocean or on the island itself.” Cheers Fran 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
