CFS2 ONLY and FS2000 only!
CFS2 ONLY and FS2000 only! Mike Pupich purchased this aircraft from Paramont Studios after it was in the film “Catch 22”. Later after beginning the resotoration work he met some original crewmembers of the 390th Squadron, 42nd Bomb Group “Crusaders”, of the 13th Air Force who were originally stationed in the South Pacific theater during the War. Mike decided then and there to re-do the aircraft just like the original. The original aircraft was flown by Charlie Wells. He flew four missions with the original “Heavenly Body” as copilot and 38 missions as pilot. The stellar moment for this aircraft was when “Heavenly Body” roared off the deck of the USS Ranger on 21 April 1992 to honor the 50th anniversary of the Doolittle raid on Tokyo. Today she does airshows nationwide and it looks like there will be many years of pleasure from her to come. This original model was done by Roger Dial, Mike Hambly and Bruce Thorson. Re-paint by J-P “Gray Wolf” Demmerle. 2.8MB
