P-63 Kincobra anyone?

[Swampfox]

In my quest for a cardmodel of a very neglected aircraft, I was wondering if anyone knows of a paper model of ANY variant of the Bell P-63 King Cobra?

And NO, it's not just a slightly modified P-39. Not one single part is interchangeable with the other. So don't suggest that I just build a P-39 and be done with it!

Anyone know of a P-63 cardmodel?

Thanks,
Swampfox

It's on my list to design. I dunno when I'll get to it though.

Thanks for the vote. This is a link to a site that is restoring a recovered Russian P-63 ---—---- Bell P-63 Kingcobra

You might find it interesting.

Speak up people, let's get a King Cobra out there in the cardmodel world.

I never saw their P-63 U-Control. I had their. PT-17. Too underpowered, had to drag it through the sky. I still had great fun with it for several weeks until it was sent to Kingman, Az for reclamation.

Those were different days,

Maybe hobby model made one back when, It rings a bell. It might have been another variant of P39 though. Too many cobwebs to clear to exactly remember....

I started on the P-63. I'll post a pic when I can get a good net connection.
