J3 Cub
My Gn15 Railroad layout is called Tobar Junction and is set in the spring of 1937, in northern Nevada. This is my first paper model build. It is a Fiddler's Green model. I think this thing will be a good addition to the layout. It is for mail delivery to Tobar.
It is a Piper J3 Cub. A bit early for an actual J3, but Cubs were around in '37. (invoking the unlimited modeling license )
This is what the start looked like.
Unfortunately I forgot to take more pics of the progress, but here it is as of today.
Note the LARGE tires. They are prototypical for rough field landings. Not sure the tires were available in '37, but this one has them. @-)
