This twin boomed innovation was so powerful with it's twin supercharged engines that it could fly higher than the bombers it was designed to escort. One of it's early problems, however, was the lack of cockpit heating and at formation altitude it can be as cold as minus 50º F! Another little problem was that we got a letter from a very lovely Marge Bong saying that her late husband Richard was mistakenly omitted from the text. She's right. We're sorry. And will fix it with the next printing. This card could possibly become a collector's piece. Hmmmmmm.
In fact, this card is the only model in this series that is actually TWO cards. We just couldn't get it all on one. It's printed in Metal-Glo and is just a little more complicated than usual
