The Hudson is a very important and under preserved and under represented type. Great result.

What a cool find. Glad to see it was saved.

I was getting kind of depressed after that Ju-88 thread... :lol:

Might be worth contacting the AWM; they have a Hudson which has the turret and ventral positions removed (ex-airliner) as well as now having this piece - it might be possible to share works / parts in the future.
