It looks like it'll be well done, but I'm sad to see it being done to this particular airframe. I loved its look with the bomb racks and grey/ green camo scheme. It was/ is one of the relatively few not in BoB paint.

Can't wait........ 8)

I'm only ever going to be able to afford one go in a two-seat single engine warbird, and as the Hurricane is my favourite, bring it on :drink3:

It looks great. We’ve turned to the next chapter in history where there are very few WW II veterans or their wives still living. To keep history alive and to bring new interest it’s essential to have a few two seaters out there.
Soon , a new warbird owner won’t even have the chance to meet someone that flew that type aircraft in the military. Giving rides and flight training keeps the interest alive. I would also like to see a fully outfitted , dual control Thunderbolt, Bearcat, P-38, Wildcat, etc.

In case you are wondering how you sort the CoG when you don't have a cannon up front on a P-39
