Martin
B-26 Susie Q flown in Midway defense.
The
upper cowls were replaced with resin from Lone Star. The upper
inlets were the smallest of three vrsions on Marauders. A cut was
made on the Monogram cowls where the optional
upper scoops on
the kit fit, next to where the out cowl dimension starts.
Quickboost engines are avilable for the Monogram kit, I think they are
quite nice and fit well in the cowl even
with the resin
parts. Those two oil pumps in the center of the small resin parts
gave me fits. I lost the first one to the cement floor monster so
I made a silicone mold from the second
before removing
it from the pour stub. Sure enough the second one flung itself
into space as well, so I ended up making two new resin parts and that
is what
finally ended up on the bottom of the nose cases.
