Spiros Pisanos was a Greek immigrant to USA and flew first for RAF with spitfire and when USA entered in WWII and accepted illegal immigrants to join the armed forces, he went and voluntered to join the USAAF, forst flying with P-47Ds and later with P-51 Mustung. You can find his story if you google for it. This is Pisanos and his aircraft

Really excellent work! Welcome, and I hope you stay and join in the fun. Your second model? Heaven knows what the twentieth will be like!!!!
 
Thank you very much for your nice comments guys. I am really pround of this ''lady'', it took me 4 months to finish it, because of the many trials and practice i did on ''dead'' models. As a begginer i had and still have to learn alot and your forum as well as the Greek one (ModelClub) that i also, primarilly (i dont want to offend you by that) post my work are the ones i keep tracking the most and are the biggest schools for me.

Have a nice time

John
 
Really nice work my friend and welcome, I've only been on the forum for a short time but I have found that any modeling question I have can be answered by someone here. Based on your FIRST THREE builds I do believe some of us can learn from you already !!!
