Ahoy
I just finished my build thread on the TBD Devestator, It was a fun build what I enjoyed the most was showing everyone here on this wonderfull forum what paper models can do just as good as wood or plastic. Scince the build is completed I transfered the build to the finished builds. Here is the failure at Midway.

Beautiful work there Boats. The TBD is one of my top 5 favorite planes. I may even pop for the new kit from Great Wall.

thank you very much for your reply on my TBD I myself has always admired the YBD. it is shame they never saw the light of day through out the world wars end. I still thinl this aircraft could still been possibly used if it were for experieced pilots durring the battle of midway. The TBFr,s even suffered great loss and it suppose to be the sucessor to the TBD. The KATE was concidered obsolte as well experienced pilots saved them from being pushed overboard into a early retirement.
