Title: Jack Sheeks "Mr. Ugly"
Post by: James Mills on September 22, 2020, 07:52:29 PM

I have been searching for a picture of his Banshee based "Mr. Ugly" with no luck.  Anyone have a picture?

Thanks,

James

I haven't seen a picture, but several descriptions of the plane and mods have been posted before. Here's an excerpt from one, which may help a bit in lieu of a picture...?

"Remember this was only to be a stunt trainer for me so I used available material I had on hand to finish the model. Orange iron on covering for the wing, tail feathers and to mark out the canopy. The rest of the body was painted with flat camouflage tan dope left over from a scale military model. Yes, Bright Orange wing and tail with a flat Tan body. The other contestants started teasing Jack about his UGLY model. Jack said they would be calling it Mr. Ugly before the weekend was over and took a black marker and wrote Mr. Ugly on the wing. After he won they called it Mr. Ugly!"  --Clancy
