| Wayne I think it was a just a bad sheet. They were brittle and cracked into little pieces especially the mission markers going down the side of fusalage.I mailed them a letter explaining the problem and sent me another sheet free of charge.Very good product support on AM's parts. |

| Is that 1:48 TT? You did a great job with it. Are the slots on the gun covers and lower wings to help with gun cooling? I've never seen these before on an A-36/ P-51 (except of course the usual cartridge ejector slots) |

| Thank you A4K! If your Talking about the slots on the top and bottom of the wings, those are air brakes to slow the aircraft down.The A-36 Apache was a dive bomber varient of the P-51a model.They were used in the African campaign(Operation Torch I believe!),also Tunisia,and Sicily if I'm correct! Oh and Yes it is Accurate Models 1/48th scale.here are some pics I found on web.You can see the speed brakes deployed in the first and third pics.
