I learned about the Aphrodite project well after I'd set plans for the B-17B but that is precisely the cockpit arrangement in mind. When the kit showed up on ARCAir and my very first thought was utterly selfish: "Crap! Now my B-17 idea won't have the impact I'd like." but then promptly dismissed that and went on exploring to see how the kit had been constructed.
Another part of the scenario includes Adolph Hitler being accepted into art school so he does not enter politics and WW-2 Europe does not ever even happen. Boeing needs a market for their new aircraft and it is still sold to the Great Government serving its years well with the U.S. Postal Service. I've not quite worked out the details of the backstory, obviously, but am working on it. FYI, yes, A.H. was rejected from art school which precipitated his entry into politics. (and that's enough of that!!!; this is a B-17 thread)
A Stratoliner Puff?
Oh yeah! :) Is it Maquette that makes a 1/72 307 out of 3/4 inch moulded bar soap?
Much of the white stuff is now imbedded all over the nose of the Land Rover.
Missed work today. Can we say Hookey!??!
And yes, it's OK with the boss.
