| Thanks again for your response to my F-82 model. A Twin Mustang is as rare on VA as it was in actuality. It was the last propeller-driven fighter acquired in quantity by USAF. Production started in 1946, too late for World War II. Only 272 were built. |

F-82 Twin Mustang |
| Dale1416, Image # 33351 | 02 Mar 15 13:00 |
After seeing a Twin Mustang in the Dayton Air Force museum last Fall, I decided to build this model using Dumas kit #206, the F-82 with a 17 ½ inch wingspan. |
| Dale1416, Image # 33350 | 02 Mar 15 12:59 |
Used ultra micro RC airplane four blade propellers, not kit’s 2 blade props. Kit came with vacuum formed cowls, prop spinners, drop tanks, and canopies. |

I modified the construction of the fuselages from kit plans by using solid balsa for the sides. |
| Dale1416, Image # 33348 | 02 Mar 15 12:58 |
The entire fuselages were infilled |

Wing constructed as per plans . |

This model represents a deviation from my usual building techniques: fuselages are totally infilled, tail feathers are solid balsa, (not stick and tissue) , used solid wing tips and later sheathed the main wing. |
