model junky Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 Interesting story. I like the photo sequences of the aircraft in flight over modern Japan. The buildings are modern but distinctly Japanese. It is definitely a contrast between the old and new. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JB2013 Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Model 22? Then its an A6M3. They must be very rare. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve N Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 Model 22? Then its an A6M3. They must be very rare. It could more accurately described as a "reproduction." It was one of two or three built in Russia back in the 90s, using some recovered wrecks as templates and equipped with P&W R-1830 engines. Still really cool though..I got to see her sister ship fly at Thunder Over Michigan a few years ago. SN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
