Hellcat N30FG

[steve dickey]

Does anyone have any ground or air to air with the new british paint scheme? T.I.A.

[Warbirdnerd]

Nope, my shots of it are in the Hanger, but both of this month's "Challange Publications" have a shot of Steve Hinton flying her back from the paint shop.

I got the latest Air Classics,

is that Hellcat the one that belonged to PoF and Mr. Maloney or was that Bob Ponds Hellcat ?? Either way, a real interesting paint job.

The question is : Did they get the colours right?

Actually it's neither of those. Bob Pond's and the POF's Hellcats are F6F-5s. 41930/N30FG is a F6F-3.

I have several hanger shots of this aircraft in Chino. I could post tonight if I have some time.

Wasn't this a/c moved to the midwest some where for dispaly, out of Chino?
