A skin for Milton Shupe's Lockheed 18 Lodestar, depicting a U.S. Navy R5O-3 that was purchased in 1941 as the personal aircraft of Rear Admiral John H. Towers, Chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics. It displays a late non-standard variation of the Navy's pre-war "VIP" livery, with "Admiral Blue" applied to the cowlings, nacelles and vertical fins rather than to only the entire fuselage as the specification called for. As with other large all metal, land based transports like the R2D, R3D and R4D, overall polished bare aluminum replaced the standard color scheme of silver paint with yellow wing upper surfaces.

There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.
