ANYONE know of any Helldiver's being modeled or flown? I haven't seen any pics, postings or plans for this ugly but strangely gorgeous early WWII Dive bomber.., I think it is beautiful in its own special way...I have never CAD any plans but was thinking maybe someone has....It would be very impressive at anyscale/////

Go to the following site: www.scaleaero.com/jerrybates.htm.
Click on GroupII and you will see a link for a set of Jerry Bates plans for the Helldiver.
