My museum has one of those. A little worse for wear but will undergo restoration shortly. We fished it out of a garaged in SoCal for the right price, it was previously owned by the Corrigan family. Yes, it's that plane.
"Wrong Way" Corrigan? That's so cool! I've always liked the Robin. Really, any Curtiss plane from the Jenny on...
Oooo that's one of my favorites. If you make it you've gotta add the doorknobs tho. Here's a pic I took of one
That's the one! You can see in the pic the giant gas tanks blocking the windshield.
That looks sweet! I like how you did the main gear.
Yea hidden underneath the balsa is a 1/8” aluminum wire actually holding the wheels on
Balsa? I thought it was foam!
The plane is foam but uses balsa LG and Struts
I wish😂😂

I work on the B-17do u do restoring for your air museum?
I wish I could but of course I need a High School degree and thats like 6 years away.
Woah woah woah buckaroo its a foam board challenge. Jkjk 😂🤣😂🤣😂
dude. NOT FAIR!!!!! aahhhhh That's my dream to fix up one of those beauties. My air meuseum already has a b-17-https://pimaair.org/exhibits-and-aircraft/museum-aircraft/ - When I go I constantly see cool planes in the restorment area.
looks great! C pack?
B Pack
I'm suprised the b pack can pull the 52" wingspan. I guess that keeps it slow lol.
I haven't been down there in months because of school and all the chaos and now I'm shipping off to the Corps, I won't be working on it for a long time. We did get the bay doors working before I left though. Among other projects they're working on a P-59, HA-112, P-39, and a Bearcat that just flew for the first time.
