Neat shot, Jack! Is there anyone out there who doesn't think that it would be cool to have a Betty restored into these colors (with the original OD faintly showing through the quick whitewash, as per the originals?)

Maybe we can get Bill G. to do something like this?

Gosh,
I would just like to see a complete, retored Betty someday. Only seen pieces and wrecks, so far.

Interesting pic..that's an early model Betty (G4M1) but appears to have extra armor protection for the fuel tanks. I knew this was introduced on the Later Bettys, but didn't realize it was retrofitted to earlier models.
