Your welcome Chriss i’m a modelbuilder also but never I never made a mk22.
Some other pictures not wartime but a mk22
(X)B-24N
It’s a b-24n the first version of the single tail b-24.
If you look carefully you’ll see the nose.
I couldn’t find a better picture.
The wrecked b-29 is still visable as it lies in 2 meters of deep water.
Another recovery team is coming back to the site to recover the wrecked items.
Like the valuable engines props etc tailplane and wings.
The aircraft crashed and was jacked on his wheels.
Because it had made a wheels up landing.
Picture of the aircraft in 1947
It’s the same aircraft before being recovered.
The recovery crew pulled it out of the lake lowered the wheels.
And new engines and props (hamilton standard) where put on.
Also the tires where changed and the rudders where recovered.
the recovery was one by the Air Pirates.
And the restoration was done by Darryl Greenmayer and his team.
