Still Spilling Paint

I was chasing Howard 500 pics with google tonight and came across a more recent pic of N130P than I'd seen before. Apparently someone decided to build a fire in the cabin. There might still be some good parts there still, but it'll never fly again. Except in FS.

Oh yeah, but I figure the hard stuff in life is what we learn from. I like a good challenge just so long as I think I have a chance at overcoming it. Keeps things interesting.

At that time didn't have the experience, but if done today easy peasy since using PS6. Mostly now is getting enough photos of every angle of an aircraft. Especially the top/bottom of wings with those fancy patterns. Howard 500 N277X in the above post would be a very cool one to do!

The Howard 350's had some cool paint jobs also that would work on the 500.

This is interesting a Howard Super Harpoon. Does have the two piece windscreens and glass on top of the cockpit with drop tanks. Harpoon tail fins also. How rare is that one? In the background their is a Howard 250/350, not sure which. The Howard 500 has three piece windscreens.

Sorry, I haven't posted here in several days. I've had some r/l issues pop up that leave me little comp time and then only a few minutes at a time. I haven't been able to get any FS work in at all as I really hate to pick something up to have to drop it in 5 minutes or so.

Thanks for the new pics TuFun!
 
No biggie... r/l issues come first. This about the best image of this one paint wise. Looks well maintained!
