B-24 SWEET ROUTINE -
11th & 30th Bomb Groups Our
Flagship "Masterpiece" has been painstakingly researched and
re-engineered to produce the finest reproduction aircraft
panel sculpture in the world. Ideal
for Aviation Museum Exhibits, Hangars, Corporate Showcase
Sculptures for Logos and private sales. Historical
Nose art markings for all theaters in WWII is available and
pricing is based on the amount of work needed. The
finished panel minus nose art features; * Actual
stringers and formers *
Working Fire Extinguisher door *
Acrylic plexiglass window *
Optional display stand on wheels *
Camouflage options and markings and
stenciling * PB4Y-1
Naval variant also available A view
of the back illustrates the complex framework
structure. The
panel size is 11.5" feet in length and 7.6" tall. The
optional self supporting display stand is of aluminium
welded tubing and finished in a chromate yellow
powdercoating for durability. A
closeup reveals the level of detail in the formers and
Acrylic plexi window. The
panel has a slight compound curvature and is exemplified
towards the top and bottom ends of the formers. A coat
of Green Zinc Primer is applied to the back side of the skin
but the formers and stringers are left "Mil Spec" finish, as
it was produced in WWII. Subsequent
panels in the near future will be modified for the various
B-24 models. This means that we will be able to change the
window configuration to represent the different models to a
D/H/L /M and F-7 Photo version. Ultimately
we will also produce a PB4Y-2 Privateer version extending
the nose section per the original. The Fire
Extinguisher access door is also faithfully reproduced
exactly right down to the spring mechanism. Missing is the
actual Fire Extinguisher and hardware to contain it. We did
not see the need to add this feature...but anything is
possible. Call for
complete package options. Base
price for the panel; Optional
display stand; Nose Art
and Camo markings start at; Crating
and shipping to destination varies. Contact; Gary
