Trevor Crook Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Yesterday afternoon I enjoyed reading Graham's review of the superb Flightline B-24. This morning I had the TV on and channel-hopped to PBS America to see an aircrew climbing on board the restored B-24 "Witchcraft", in the same scheme as the review model. Spooky! They took off and blasted away with some of the guns (blanks presumably!) and dropped some concrete practise bombs. It's a series called "The Restorers" which I believe has been shown before, so many on here will already have seen it. They were showing several back-to-back episodes so I've set it to record. What an amazing looking model. I prefer warbird fighters because you can do more with them, but if putting on a realistic display of bomber flying is your thing it looks the business. Not a cheap purchase, but considering what you get I regard the price as fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J D 8 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Flightline did base their model on B24 "Wichcraft". Have seen pic of both model and fullsize together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Crook Posted October 27, 2018 Author Share Posted October 27, 2018 They did a fine job. Graham will need to put on the rotating turret nose for full authenticity! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graham Ashby (Editor) Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 That's interesting Trevor, I'd love to see the programme, I'll see if I can find it. Glad I bumped into the thread, thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
