I was talking about the Lone Star A-20 in particular, believe she was used as a transport or hack aircraft, can't seem to recall. I might be confusing my planes also. If I remember she is flyable, but no one is checked out on her and I think she is either sold or for sale. Only thing inside her is the cockpit, gun positions are pretty much empty.

Again, this is going off memory, been awhile since I dealt with it.

ok, no dice from the Navy Museum, it was a long shot but took my chances. Got a few more sources I am trying now. I picked up a bunch of TBM info that might be interesting, some loadout options we don't have plus the turret is not modelled correctly. I'll post when i get done scanning.

Well I did hit a gold mine for Navy aircraft. Nothing like looking through documents from 1942. I am researching VF-15 for a possible publication. Found a bunch of good stuff for them. After Action reports, letters to and from just about everwhere and some letters from David McCampbell about his specific aircraft. I'll post the TBM and "Minsi III" info ASAP.
