Hi Guys, the latest additions to my walkaround site couldn't be further apart in most respects. A Curtiss F8C Helldiver reproduction and the last surviving FMA I.A.-33 Pulqui II, designed by none other than Kurt Tank of Focke Wulf fame.
The Helldiver was built for Sir Peter Jackson's 2005 remake of King Kong but in the end used for close up shots of the pilots only.

The Pulqui was the last of five prototypes of an indigenous Argentine fighter with a remarkable history, despite the fact it never entered service.
