Full type, Ryan SCW-145. This one is owned by William Russell.

You know there were a bunch of movies made right after the start of WW2 where the studios used these Ryans as Japanese Fighters and crashed a whole bunch of them

Well, from what I have seen, there were only 12 SCWs built. But they did use them in Wake Island and Flight For Freedom. One of the things I read is that they used them as Zeroes! I think there are only 2 or 3 of the SCWs left.

Hey 108, aint seen you around for a while! 8) What ya been up to?

It does look alot like a Vampire

 

[cheddar cheese]

Except for the fact its got a propellor, and looks much smaller.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

jsut cos it's smaller it doesn't mean it doesn't look like something else.........

 

[cheddar cheese]

To be honest the Vampire never even crossed my mind when I looked at it.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]

so that automatically means it doesn't look like it??

 

[cheddar cheese]

Well to me, it doesnt.

 

[the lancaster kicks ass]
