The Loggie Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 G'Day Guys, I'm getting together the bits to do a dio of 3 B.17's leaving their dispersal to join another 3 on the taxiway. So what would be around the B.17 dispersals? Yes, I've watched "Memphis Belle' - lots of times. There will be a wrecked Me 110 that was dragged off the taxiway by a tractor. Lots of pers. What else? TIA George, out.................. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rc.amsterdam Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 (edited) Hi, you could try to get some ground crew watching and add one or two US trucks. However in the 1/144 scale it will be difficult to find those as models. In 1/160 (railway N scale) there certainly is that material available. The dio is a nice idea as the 1/144 B-17 is small and the dio would not be very big. regards RC Edited March 6, 2008 by rc.amsterdam Quote Link to post Share on other sites
