I Saw This And Had to Post.

I build scale models, and follow a couple of model building pages on Facebook. This is a picture of a P-39 at a contest recently. Something about it caught my eye, but I can't quite put my finger on it...

It's not often you see them in desert colors.  That must be it.

 

Hmmm... Maybe...

That one says Pat Riot II.

 

The II is smaller than the rest of the name.

 

If that one is number two, then obviously our Pat is the original.

Hey Doc.

Post some pics of your models!

 

I used to build them also. Still have some of the race car models because they were the most recent (30 years ago). Still have all of the air brush stuff and other modeling tools, paints, etc., etc.,, in a tackle box. REAL good chance that all that stuff is dried up and rock solid now. Lost the tanks, ships and airplane models somewhere along the road of life.

 

I'll get some pics up when I can although none of them say Pat Riot! :P

:lol: Well lookie there! I’m famous! 
 

That’s really cool Doc. Thanks. 
 

I noticed the image that @Sedalia Daveposted it has a Roman Numeral 2 behind the name. 
I wonder why they didn’t name their plane “Patriot”? 
 

I am going to have to save those images. Thank you Pards.

I haven’t built a model in 50 years. Man it’s weird to type that out… Anyway, I may have to try again and build “my” plane. :D
