First to take off this week is a classic at a decent price from a line that is disappearing from dealers' shelves. It's a 1:48 scale Armour/Franklin Mint U.S. Army P-40 from Prestige Hobbies for $49.99.



The Curtiss P-40 was an American single-engine, single-seat, all-metal fighter and ground attack aircraft that first flew in 1938. It was used by the air forces of 28 nations, including those of most Allied powers during World War II, and remained in front line service until the end of the war. By November 1944, when production of the P-40 ceased, 13,738 had been built.

Our next selection is an encore selection from June, but is now dirt cheap. From the Monkey Depot for a mere $14.99. It is the Hobby Master 1:72 scale Avenger TBM-3E2 Dutch Marine Luchtvaartdienst, 1954.


Grumman TBM-3E2 Dutch Marine Luchtvaartdienst, 1954

Description: The TBF/M "Avenger" was the biggest single engine aircraft during the WWII. She was ordered into production in Dec 1940 with first delivery just in time for the Battle of Midway. The "Avenger" was characterized by its rigid and strong body and its versatilities. She started out as a torpedo bomber but it soon took the duties as a close-support bomber, a patrol aircraft and even a trainer. After the war the Avenger was also used as crop dusters and forest fire water bombers.

Fifty TBM-3 were delivered in 1953-4 to the Royal Netherlands Naval Air service and these were ex-planes from the US Navy. They were used as submarine 'killer' and some were deployed from the Dutch navy aircraft carrier “Karel Doorman”.

Description:
-Incredible detail
-Stand included
-Opening canopy
-Full armament
