Of course, I will do that! 



In the mean time, I am looking more information about this F6F-5, flown by Cdr Daniel 'Dog' Smith of VF-20, in the USS Enterprise, in 30 October of 1944.

Where do you all find these Byron Hellcats. Seems like years since I've seen one online for sale. Beautiful plane!

Well after more research I have read a couple posts in other threads stating that the Don Smith F6F canopy is a close match . Can anyone confirm that before I order one ?
If no replies I guess I will post what I discover when I get that far
Thanks

Good to know about the DS Canopy. Thanks. All the engines you mention will fly it fine. The 5.8 will add a little natural "sweep back" to the wings plan form.

Hi first time I've stumbled across your thread. No need for an add for me. I flew a Wing Hellcat back in the 90's. Nice flying plane, flew like a fighter should but would land like a trainer.
