Awesome find :aok  Big Beautiful Doll was my first attempt at AH skins.  Col. Landers piloted her and was WW2 Ace.  I am extremely pleased to see her in such excellent condition!  I believe the last I heard she was owned by a pilot residing in Canada I believe.

Fester skinned Big Beautiful Doll. Great skin, and beautiful aircraft!

Yes he did!  I hope it didn't sound like I was trying to take credit for his work.  I dabbled with skinning and got interested in this one while sifting through WW2 photos.  I skinned it for my own personal project and actually completed it with the exception of markings.  The one sided frame for side view made the markings reversed on the right  side of the plane.
