RE: Douglas DC-7
Sorry to disagree, but GP wanted to make a P-38 and call it a Lightening and approached Lockeed. Lockeed had long been sold to another company and they wanted something like hundreds of dollars for each model sold! GP finally released the profile P-38 but notice it has NO ties to Lockeed.....I got this information from Don Anderson himself. That legal hoop they tried to jump cost GP a lot of time - the kit was ready to go but they had to dodge the legal ties to Lockeed. I was not aware of DJ Aerotech's situation.
