Re: Who has PIC'S of GMP Gripes a Mighty

(I started with ONE, only ONE I said - now I have FOUR! .)

Tis the fate of us all Cardinal,
This darn must have list of mine just gets longer and longer. (I have 3 planes on the way at the moment).

I can forsee the dogs having company in their pen before too long!

George Preddy was......Just the greatest fighter pilot who ever squinted through a gunsight.
He was a complete fighter pilot.......Colonel John C. Meyer Deputy Commander of the 352nd.

That is an impressive bit of weathering and detail on this model.
 

Brewster Buffalo, Hawk 75A, Fokker D.XXI, Polikarpov I-16, Fiat G.50, Macchi C. 200, PZL P.11c, Fieseler Fi 156 Storch ,,,, now those are real planes.

Amazing , that whole scene looks so real, the figure looks exactly like the man himself, most figures I have seen don't look anything like the person they are supposed to be modelled on.

That paint job is outstanding.

Ya know it might be worth a spell in the doghouse to own that set up.
 

God Bless America.

Thumbs up Re: Who has PIC'S of GMP Gripes a Mighty

The hinges are less obvious on the green birds. Missouri Armada is still available on eBay.
And I to have to agree, the GMP P51 is outstanding.Just look at the engine detail,and the cockpit,ahhh..........

Re: Who has PIC'S of GMP Gripes a Mighty

In the photo of Preddy on the Cripes, are the "kills" accurately painted in the right location?....the GMP and BBI Cripes have the kills painted on the blue nose area, not under the canopy.

Dragon53, That aircraft is actually Cripes A Mighty 4th (even though it didn't say 4th on the aircraft). That was Preddy's final mount. The GMP model is of Cripes A Mighty 3rd.
