Working on a new section for Forgotten Props, the North American Twin Mustang.


Thanks Duncan for the research you provided!


Question for the WIX hive mind

Does anybody know the name of this F-82? It's 46-408 and it looks like "Land XXXXXX" and I can't make out the second word.

Happy to help! I looked at this for a long time and assumed it was 'Lard' but it could indeed be 'Land'. "Land Based" maybe? (as in, "not Navy"?)

Lard Bucket???

To me it looks like "Low Blow" partially obscured by exhaust staining.

Ryan's Lard Bucket seems most likely.

I'm with Ryan also. It's hard to see the last couple of letters of "Bucket" in the script on the cowl, but otherwise it makes sense.

Naw, I never flew one
