B-17G Flying Fortresses 353rd BS/301st BG & 401st BS/91st BG

Published: July 14, 2011
Company: SuperScale International

The B-17 is one of my all-time favorite aircraft and with the new Revell kit out in 1/72nd scale I was very excited to get this sheet of decals to give me some additional options when I acquire the kit.

British Motor Gun Boat 1939-45

Published: October 12, 2010
Book Author(s): Angus Konstam
Company: Osprey Publishing

Most of you have heard of PT Boats, E-Boats, and MTBs. There have been movies, books, and some good models of these boats. But a class that doesn’t get that much attention is the British Motor Gun Boats or MGBs. This 48 page soft-cover book starts with the development of these craft.
