Did I miss advance information about this one completely? Did John and the guys (and gals) at the PA skunk works put one over on us? While checking out some eBay listings this AM, I came across this one. I checked the Manufacturer's web site and found no indication of this kit.

I may finally have a way to come up with some decals for another kit that I've been contemplating building.

YESSSSSSSS!

Oddly enough Virginia Hobbysport can offer decals and u/c for this kit but not the kit itself...

Looking at the Brodak catalog #12 on page 34 states the P-40B is "Coming Soon"
I guess it's here now.

I guess that not buying the catalog any more (since the web site has been kept relatively up to date) has its disadvantages.

Yup, I just happens to have two of them thar things sitting here among my kits. There's usually somebody selling the things on e-bay, and usually for more than what you can get it through the normal channels. Be interesting to see what it goes for.

That P-40 certainly made it to the market without much hoopla.

Your second sentence goes without saying. I've seen the current Cox PT-19's sell for as much as $60.00, this with a suggested retail of $49.95 and a street price of between $32.95 and $34.95.

It's an interesting world in which we live. SIGH!

HI Paul, I have one of these kits in my garage awaiting assembly. I picked it up at the last "Brodaks Fly In" this June. The latest catalog is #12-A.

Don't be surprised if you soon see the Berkley P-40 kit available. I read a very small blurb in one of the magazines that there is someone that is going to do it. Sorry but I didn't keep track of who but I think it was in Flying Models

Hey, Bill.

Didn't Tom Dixon do the Black Tiger awhile back?
