Re: Your #1 pick for single engine WWII fighter

My vote for Skunky for president was REALLY an additional vote for a 1:48 P-51D!

It will be so marked.

Re: Your #1 pick for single engine WWII fighter

Since the other threads along this line are focused on planes that are desired but are not yet available in diecast, I would like to withdraw my P-40E pick and substitute a MC-202---also in 1:72.

Re: Your #1 pick for single engine WWII fighter

OK, with the clarification I can now give my answer:

1/32 F-4U Corsair

I must say I had to think about that one a lot, as there are several other candidates that would be almost a tie. No matter what I chose, though, it would have been in 1/32.
