ghodges Posted June 24, 2019 Report Share Posted June 24, 2019 That's one pretty P-38! Love the NMF and the markings. Did you paint the d-Day stripes o the bottom, or are they decals? Congrats Bill, and thanks for sharing! GIL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Deliduka Posted June 25, 2019 Report Share Posted June 25, 2019 That's a beautiful plane and a wonderful tribute! My brother went to school in Steubenville. I'm thrilled to see this honoring someone from there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wdedig Posted June 30, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2019 Thanks Guys...Sorry for Delay in Response. Gil.. Stripes are painted and Black undercoating for Alclad was the Black section of the Stripes. Heres a Look at the Business end and the Karaya Gun Barrels that are really nice.
