Looks very similar to the Skyraider! Just love the look of contra-roatating props! 🙂

Fubar from the start, and butt ugly too. Killed a test pilot. Three years spent on a failed design.

Dave this is a cool aircraft. Doesn’t Clear Prop have a kit of it? It has nice lines, I like it. Thanks for sending J

Clear Prop has kits in both 1/48 and 1/72 scale, plus there are a surprising number of older limited run and vac kits out there.
