| I never saw that Twilight Zone episode, which was made in 1960. But a similar movie called Sole Survivor was made in 1970. It had Richard Basehart and William Shatner and also featured a B-25. Both, the TZ episode and this movie were based on the discovery of the B-24 Lady Be Good, which had gone missing on a mission and was discovered in the Libyan desert in 1959. Great model, Deck. |

| When I first got the kit It weas a J model I am not to partial to J models I always liked the earlier models without the holly carburater system they employed through out the war years,At first i wanted to make it a tokyo raider, but after watching the twighlight zone King nine I decided to model her in the North Africa campaign. the kit had to be rebuilt useing North American builder plans from inglewood california. I filled in between the formers with blue foam board and useing templates sanded and filed until it was in the right perspective. Landing gear to the kit was scuddled. i made home made landing gear struts useing aluminum tubeing The cowlings were thrown away I made mine useing my lathe following the plans the early C models had no Holly exaust system the nose green house was vacuformed, the wings were covered with 1/64 balsa sheets I brushed on sears filled epoxy and wet and dry sanded primed and finished off desert pink and Azure blue with a airbrush. tedious but effective. Thank you for your reply I enjoy this forum you fellas build some very good models the best I seen in years and many more to come A HARDY WELL DONE TO YOU ALL. |

| Thank you Ted
I bought this kit when it first came out at first I was going to build it as a B model Jimmy Doolittles B25. But my attention got caught when i was watching the Twilight zone with Bob Commings in King Nine Wont Return, this is a early C model in north Africa all desert pink with Azure blue undersides all airbrushed thank you Ted
