B17, B29 and B52

Dunno what they have in common though, unless it's just that they are yank bombers designated with a "B"

Fods, you are right with the model numbers, but that is not the answer. If you think about it, it's not too hard to see that they all share something.
I'll gve a little clue.......Linage.

Me too (the older military ones in particular), but I suppose you've guessed that already.

Just a bit :D,
I'm a frustrated flyer, did'nt get in the RAF, so I done 14 yrs in the Army instead. I like military vehicles, but prefer aircraft. :D

I've always been a big fan of wartime aircraft, especially WW2. I used to be an mad keen model maker and had at least 40 fully painted airfix/revell & tamiya (sp?) kits dangling from fishing line off my bedroom ceiling when I was at school.

Later on I moved on to military vehicles (WW2 tanks etc) and used to spend hours making minature wartime scenes in plaster of paris, with trees, buildings and figures to display the finished kits. Gave the whole lot away in the end when I left school & got hooked on bikes.

Didge;

Here is one you might like. I have a P-38 315 gallon Belly tank that I will be building into a period correct 1950s Bonneville Lakester.
