38th BG B-25H
« on: December 26, 2015, 05:25:24 AM »
Thanks to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

The 38th BG flew low level raids against Japanese installations, airfields and shipping in the South Pacific using B-25 Mitchell bombers. These were mostly C and J variant bombers fitted with colourfully painted straffer noses. However the 38th's 405th BS briefly operated a couple of B-25H aircraft during the summer of 1944 which were painted with the squadron's distinctive green dragon nose art.

Have to give cactuskooler a honourable mention on this project as well,he asked me about this aircraft back in 2011 & I had some missing pieces that was needed to complete this skin.
Sadly he seems to have left AHII & I have not been able to get in touch with him via the BBS or his listed email. So I decided to pass the skin on to Greebo as it was just to rare an aircraft not to have in the game. Greebo as usual did it justice with his fine work. So I don't think cactuskooler would mind.

Very cool! <S>
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!
