I laugh...I know he got that warning "You sure you want to do this?" followed up with the "You really sure you want to do this?"
It's been a slow week on the stats Gary, I'm in.

Bumpity bump, come on guys think out of the box here, a lot of planes you might not think of as being designed as trainers were used s such.
While it had many uses, training RAF crews was one of its main ones
And many other British, German and American planes were used as trainers once they were replaced in combat by newer types...
The Fairey Battle once proven to be a failure in its planned role finished the war as a target tow
Ditto the Boulton Paul Defiant
Many of the P-70s that were built never left the states and were used to train crews that were to get the P-61 when it is was ready
So if the idea of building just a nondescript trainer is holding you back there are other options.

That's the way to promote it Gary, they'll come around. I'm still holding out for my 1941/Movie prop build.

You're right Ryan, around here I know they had the B25B models for training.

I was thinking about this the other day. At Lowry AFB in 1983 they had load trainers in the "Black Shack" and "Sac Shack", trainers of all the then current aircraft in inventory. At the SAC Shack they had a B-52D, B-52F and an F-111. They were pretty much gutted of anything that didn't have to do with the weapon systems. Think about the BUFFs though, the wings were clipped between the weapon's pylon and engine pylon and the rudder was removed. I thought that would be an interesting "Trainer" to build up. Probably would do it in one of the little scales, if I did it.
