    ****Finished P-40B 112 Sqn Eygpt 1942.

    First off, here is the pilot who flew this.

    Commonwealth biplane fighter aces - Neville Bowker

    Username: B-17engineer
    First name: Harrison
    Category: Beginner
    Scale: 1:48
    Manufacturer: Revell
    Model Type: Curtis P-40B
    Details: RAF 112 Squadron in Egypt 1941

    I'd like to give a special thanks to Wojtek for sitting through this since September. I really think my skills have improved since the beginning. Thank you for making my first model special



    Also, everyone who supported me throughout the build.

    It may not be the best, but to me all that matters is I'm happy with it. Keith informed me Mr. Bowkes flew a P-40 labeled 'B' so when my skills are a bit better I may try to do some justice to Mr. Bowkes crates.

    Those are the 4 required ( think/hope)

    Harrison, Keep this bird some place safe and use it as a measuring block on which all future models will be compared to.

    Congratulations Harrison! It was a long road and sometimes frustrating but I think you learned a lot. Good luck with the judging. Looking forward to your Stuka and Dornier!
