Question for Focke-Wolf fans. Arthur Bentley did a really fine 5 sheet
set of drawings for the FW-190 radial engined fighters that ran in
"Scale Models" in 1978. Has anyone ever seen anything similar on the
190D Jumo engined birds??

I want to make small closed-type impellors for pumping cryogenic liquids
(LOX, perhaps later LH2) under high stress, low weight conditions. This is
for experimental purposes, at least at first. Suggestions for a production
version are also welcome.

I'm looking for scale plans for this beast. Any and all help is appreciated,
John.

We have four or five Dexion racking bays, screw-together type, for
disposal. Apart from being a bit dusty they are in good shape, we need

Got a copy of #141 from Squadron & it has a fantastic article on an
A-26K dio. I can't read it, but the dio is outstanding! Anyway, it
appears that it may be part 2 & Squadron doesn't have the previous
issue. If anyone has the above issue which I assume has Part 1 in in &

Does anyone know about replacement propellers to replace those
butter-churn paddles that Pavla so very kindly gave the Widgeon kit?

pretty sure the B-25 gets all the glory is because of the Tokyo raid and
