Northrop BT
« on: May 09, 2016, 12:25:59 PM »
Ran across the picture of the BT, the predecessor of the SBD. Although over 50 were built it apparently was not to successful. Flew on the USS Yorktown and Enterprise. I'd like to make one some day, but don't really have room this year. Too many projects already.

John, I think I saw that picture in an old Life magazine with several other great carrier photos. Pre war colors were great.
