Scale Marine Corps PBJ-1 with flack damage - Returned from flight over pacific with major flack and bullet damage - the top turret gunner, nose gunner and co-pilot do not survive. 101" Ziroli with twin 38cc Zenohas & JR Equipment.

Test flown by Bill Hempel. Lots of bullet holes - flack damage and giant gaping holes in the wing and fuse. Lots of drag, lots of lost lift and during test flight the left engine sours due to bad airflow over carb.

Test Pilot Bill Hempel expertly adjust rudder and fly's it anyway - this is why getting the best is worth the effort. If you need a pilot = http://www.billhempel.com
