And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Consolidated Vultee PB4Y-2 Privateer, Bu. No. 59602, in flight. The aft dorsal turret is aiming directly at the camera
I've got some time in PB4Y's. Noisy airplane. Fuel leaks always made the cockpit area smell of gasoline. It was practically a rain forest behind the pilots.

ReplyDeleteI wish someone would make a modern standard kit of these. The old Matchbox kit is a bit basic to be tempting.
ReplyDeleteTake a B-24, find another kit with tailplane close and hack away :-).
