Review
Latest in Squadron/Signal’s growing series, B-29 Superfortress Walk Around provides a vast amount of vital modeling minutiae on Boeing’s legendary bomber.
Color coverage chiefly details the impeccably restored 44-61975 “Jack's Mack” – centerpiece of the 58BW Memorial at the New England Air Museum near Hartford, CT. Author Savage masterfully and methodically maps key aircraft features – including crew stations, gun positions, props, power plants, and landing gear.
Looking for prop logos? Ordinance essentials? Paint particulars? Internal or external, they’re likely here!
Over 210 informative images – including period photos – supplement text. Add 12 color profiles, line drawings, and Superfortress survivor list. And this handy, helpful tome excellently augments any B-29 model project.
Recommended.
My sincere thanks to Squadron/Signal Publications for this review sample!
