Bar Fly
« on: July 19, 2017, 04:50:43 AM »
Thanks to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

During the war the USAAF received 948 de-navalised Douglas SBD dive bombers and renamed them A-24 Banshee.  This A-24B (SBD-5 equivalent) was named Bar Fly and served with the 635th Bomb Squadron during the summer of 1943 while based in Alaska for the Aleutian Islands campaign.

Beautiful work.  The OD looks right on.  I didn't know the Army used A-24s in the Aleutians.

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!

That's some pretty detailed nose art.   Skuzzy explained how you guys do this stuff before.  I need to learn this skill.    Nicely done.
