| Here's a
bunch of photos of Mike's 24 inch span Brewster F2A-3 Buffalo that he built for
the "Battle of Midway" event we held at the MAYFLY this year. Mike's F2A-3 is
in Capt. Humberd's markings. In spite of being outnumbered by over ten to
one, he shot down 2 aircraft and had a probable with this aircraft.

Here I am holding my F2A-3. I had a fresh motor set aside for the "Battle of Midway" event, and then somehow got it swapped for an almost completely severed old motor. I now throw those old motors away! It still lasted two rounds before breaking while winding for the third round. |
| Here's the instrument panel - It's COMPLETELY accurate right down to the last dial! |  |
