Thank you very much for your comments!
To be honest, 2 plastic models and one resin model are hidden among the fifty or so paper models. Have you spotted them? |

This L-4 is the legendary mount of Major Charles Carpenter, also known as: ‘The Mad Major’; and ‘Bazooka Charlie’. He was frustrated by the German panzer tanks moving before he could bring the artillery down on them. He mounted six bazooka rocket launchers to his wing struts, and he went Panzer hunting. He named his aircraft: ‘Rosie the Rocketer’.
A DGA model with a jeep also. |

It was such a joy to learn about this historic aircraft when our DGA team created this model!
You can learn more here, from the people that own the actual aircraft: L-4 Grasshopper - The American Heritage Museum |

Introducing the Wagner Twin Tripacer.
Having failed with his Twin Piper Cub, presented earlier, Mr. Harold Wagner of Portland, Oregon, still wishing to obtain a low-cost twin-engine, built this aircraft in 3 weeks by grafting an additional engine to the front of a Piper Tripacer that didn't need so much. After around a hundred hours of disappointing testing, the aircraft returned to its initial configuration." Modified model based on the Tripacer Fiddlersgreen. The colors are imaginary, as I couldn't find any color photos. |

The strangest Piper!
If that little jeep is a DGA, then you have made the most of it. It's a good model to start with, and yours looks very realistic. Don |

Always a pleasure to see your creations Jan. The Twin Tripacer is something out of left field!

Thank you Don. Yes, the jeep is the DGA model. Some Piper kits have also a jeep with the sheet. |
