Dropped the most bombs  No, " Flak Bait" a B26 was built as a Medium Bomber.


It's so famous that Revell had a kit of it.






The ribbit one is a guess some bloke took and put on the internet give it a month and it will be 1/4 of what it is now

I'm sure that may be true but I'll give a hint, It's surprisingly less than the amount of chickens dispatched in Australia!

Correct Jeff the XR400 was first produced in 96.

The first one I ever saw was the one Glen Weeks had brand new in 96, it was on a Desert ride, lead by Glen. We started in Bordertown SA, went up to Pinnaroo for the night and down the Border Fence to Bordertown. That was the first time I did the border track. I did that ride on the big KTM540 two stroke...

3 - Most missions (and clearly a Hasegawa kit not a Revell kit).
The older I get, the slower I was.

Correct Mat, Flak Bait completed 202 bombing missions over Europe during WW2, it also did 5 decoy missions for a total of 207 times over the enemy. The most of any US bomber during WW2.

More Info on Flak Bait

Thanks again Phil.

Spent many weeks in this country with Helen, It's country that can not be rushed, you need to stop to "get it" isolation, vastness and gems to be found, above and below ha ha.
