      Thanks & Great Hellnbak πŸ‘ Both: your so cool model and the fact that we both liked this topic and decided it was worth dedicating some SU-modeling to it! πŸ˜„
      Despite search, these facts about this plane I did not know so far!
      (Did I understood correctly - next to the motor πŸ‘ you also modelled the plane shown above as well?!?)

            Sorry, been super busy. Yes, I did model both the plane and the engine. Such as they are.

                        Many years ago I downloaded TSgt Theodore Petras's personal journal. About 450 pages, and typewritten so it's easy to read. Here's his entry for Aug 29, 1940, where he takes up the Beech (that's what he calls the Staggerwing). It's unbelievable how the extreme cold caused so many problems with this flight.
