Default B-29 crash and burn
B29 built from Gillows display kit by John Castronover. First flight (hot) was good but then on the second flight it snapped on approach and went in from 10 feet up (very hot).

Hi Red Scholefield
That is terrible. Is it glow or electric? What do you mean by "hot"? Any idea what caused it?
