Hey Jerry, Do you have a photo of this aircraft? Or was it by any chance published anywhere? I would love to see that thing. I love the early models brought to later standards... like that A-3 that had both early and late model antenna mast on the tail...

Leo & Jerry, my question about the tank & wooden props - was there just to confirm my speculation that various props were attached to the aircraft with & without the tanks installed.

Also - was the rack moved forward in order to contra balance the tank or simply to allow access to the tank's hatch?

Best,
Milos
