Hi again folks. Well I took a chance. Found a 1/72 B-52
Stratofortress at local thrift store. $3.99, great deal.
The kit was never started. However, when I got it home I
did an inventory with the instructions and discovered that
there are missing parts. Which are as follows:

All landing gear parts. Wheel halves, struts, linkage.
The cockpit deck and ejection seats.
The rear 'swivel' gun and the clear canopy over tailgunner.
Decals.

Sounds like an inflight model.

Better yet....find a 1/72nd scale PBR...and do a
diorama of that killer scene in "Apocalypse Now".
