my grandfather, who passed recently, left me some of his franklin model planes. Pretty cool



pretty sure that one of them.

the other looks similar to the b-17 you posted, obviously was a german plane though. I'll look it up and post it later.

That one is more interesting to me than the rest though because he said that he remembers one swooping down towards the street he was on in England. It was flying so low that he could see the gunners face in the ball turret on the bottom of the plane. He had to duck into a movie theatre to avoid gunfire.. Definitely not something I have had to do in my lifetime...
