I'll see what I can find, we are after the B-29A, right? According to the article Ed provided, that seems to be the type. Lovely repaint by the way...looks like I may not need to venture very deep into Washington waters
B-29A, yes. I have to say Steve, I very much doubt you will find a good one. I've trawled all the usual sites without luck. Maybe you know of somewhere else; I certainly hope so.
You are sadly right, Paul, I can't find one anywhere, just the 'B' variant. I come across the Washington repaint that Andy mentions, but of course I don't have the WoP model. Oh well, I'll shelve that idea for a while.

More's the pity Steve; based on what I've seen of your work, it would have been terrific. :sad:
By the way...DaveB...I was right about the different metal reflectivity on the Peacemaker. It is indeed because some areas were aluminium skinned, and others magnesium alloy.
Here some shots from FSX multiplayer. Dave B and Rick Piper were actually flying the WOP B17, which I had not got set up on my FSX. The sim made us all B36's!
Not an easy aircraft to fly in close formation
Tks for posting those
