"Bat outa' Hell" B-25J Mitchell
« on: January 18, 2009, 06:49:52 PM »
"Bonjour tout le monde",  :-salut

Here is the Airfix kit in 1/72 scale of the N. A. B-25J Mitchell. I don't remember the year when the kit was built but it was before 1969, I think in 1968. Apart from the national US insigna and No 31 all markings have been hand-painted following a drawing found in the issue of "Flying Review" of October 1967. I think it's not very accurate (I never found a photo of that plane and others of the 499th BS have a bat that has not exactly the same outline.

I saw one more recently, in December 1991...
