Nose Art Aircraft Polished aluminum panel B17 Flying Fortress Bomber USAF 48×48
050 6061 Aircraft aluminum. The panel measures 48″ wide and approximately 48″ tall, and extends 11.5 from the wall when hung. Have your favorite artist paint your wife, girlfriend or anyone you desire on a panel worthy of display anywhere. You would have a hard time not thinking it came right off a Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, since everything is right off the measurements of the real aircraft, right down to the 700+ rivets and spacing. Yellow bombs are just stickers to give you a feel for how they would look after your artist paints them on. There are some minor flaws in the aluminum, a few dents, scratches, but they are all there to look as close to a real B-17 panel as possible, they never even left the factory perfect, it was WWII and they were rushed out of the factory. The panel is finished to represent a well preserved panel as if it flew missions, and was left in storage the last 70+ years. The 4 Bulkheads are hand crafted from. 050 aluminum over a hand made red oak buck with lightening holes and riveted onto the panel to provide the correct shape of the fuselage. There is a radio squawk box that is not period correct, but that can be easily removed. The item “Nose Art Aircraft Polished aluminum panel B17 Flying Fortress Bomber USAF 48×48″ is in sale since Saturday, December 27, 2014. This item is in the category “Collectibles\Transportation\Aviation\Military Aircraft\Other Military Aircraft Items”. The seller is “noseartdisplays” and is located in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Hobby Master 172 USAF A-10A Thunderbolt II Ground Attack Aircraft, #HA1328
Obsolete weapons do not deter. British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher. The A-10 and OA-10 Thunderbolt IIs are the first Air Force aircraft designed specifically for close air support of ground forces. They are simple, effective, and highly survivable twin-engine jet aircraft that can be used against all ground targets, especially tanks and other armored vehicles. The first production A-10A was delivered to Davis-Monthan Air Force Base, AZ. The aircraft can carry a wide variety of ordnance under its wings and nose, loiter on-station for long periods of time, and fly over a wide combat radius, making it an ideal warrior on today’s battlefield. In the Gulf War, A-10s, with a mission capable rate of 95.7 percent, flew 8,100 sorties and launched 90 percent of the AGM-65 Maverick missiles used in-country. This particular 1:72 scale replica of a USAF Fairchild Republic A-10A Thunderbolt II ground attack aircraft that was attached to the 66th Weapons Squadron, then deployed to Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, during April 2005. Dimensions: Wingspan: 8-3/4-inches Length: 9-3/4-inches. Features: – Diecast construction – Accurate markings and insignia – Full complement of weapons – Opening canopy – Comes with seated pilot figure – Interchangeable landing gear – Comes with display stand. Historical Account: “Hawgsmoke” – Hawgsmoke is a biennial United States Air Force bombing, missile, and tactical gunnery competition for A-10 Thunderbolt II units. It is hosted by the winners of the previous competition and provides both skills competition and an opportunity to share in the camaraderie and fellowship within the A-10 community. Hawgsmoke grew out of the discontinued “Gunsmoke” Air Force Worldwide Gunnery Competition. Colonel Cliff Latta of the 172nd Fighter Squadron is credited with initiating the first Hawgsmoke competition at the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center, Michigan and was hosted by the Michigan Air National Guard’s 172nd Fighter Squadron from Battle Creek. A-10 units from around the world sent four aircraft and associated crew to compete in ground attack and target destruction events. The 118th Fighter Squadron from the Connecticut Air National Guard won the first event and in turn hosted Hawgsmoke 2002, at Fort Drum, New York. In 2002, 17 teams and 62 aircraft competed. The overall winner was the four-member team from the 47th Fighter Squadron from Barksdale Air Force Base, Louisiana. Hawgsmoke 2002 emphasized target acquisition and focused on accurately dropping practice bombs, firing the AGM-65 Maverick missile, and strafing proficiency with the 30 mm GAU-8 Gatling gun. Hawgsmoke 2004 was hosted by the 47th Fighter Squadron and held at England Air Park, Louisiana. The competition grew to include 18 teams and more than 70 aircraft. Weather conditions forced the cancellation of the competition events and consequently the event became known as “Hawgwash” 2004. As there was no winner in 2004, the 355th Fighter Wing was selected to host the 2006 event. It was held from March 22nd-25th at Davis Monthan Air Force Base, Arizona. Hawgsmoke 2006 coincided with the 30th Anniversary of the A-10; consequently, over 140 aircraft flew in to take part. The 303rd Fighter Squadron from Whiteman Air Force Base, Missouri, emerged the winner. In turn, the 303rd hosted Hawgsmoke 2008 at Smoky Hill Range, Kansas. The free listing tool.
