This particular position was the demise of the 6th Chadwick. Seems as if some exuberant pilot returning from a successful mission did a couple of barrel rolls over the field resulting in bent wings and the scrapping of this pretty airplane. |

Thanks, gentlemen. For a while I wasn't happy with it and there are still some things that bother me, but it's starting to come together. |

Thanks Brian. It was with the 13th Bomb Squadron in Korea about 1952. |

Mr.O. Note how quickly dust builds up on gloss black. |

I don't have the painting skills for weathering, so it's "as new" with gloss finish. |

Motorized. Searched hard, but most pictures had no manufacturer decal on the props. A couple looked like they may have been Hamilton Standard. Anyone else ever seen an original with Hamilton decals? |

I don't think so. Just really tall grass. |

Is that a "Tad" of the dreaded Scotch Broom to the right of the Stag Don? It is every where down here! |

Hot enough yesterday that everything was resting in the shade. |

Thanks. I like DD's method for making props. |
