Since I helped highjack the thread about the TBD ( it wound up locked for good reason);
First of all, I apologize for having done so.
Second, could we have a discussion just about the chances of getting this important aircraft into the game ( with moderators permission )?
Go nuts, just avoid the obvious...
I seem to remember that the 1C version would have been AI only because of lack of cockpit info. The only pics I have found of a TBD cockpit are those in the Devastator profile, and they don't have enough detail to do a proper pit for each of the crew positions (though better than nothing, I suppose). I did scan the profile for 1C and should still have the scans somewhere, so if anybody decides to complete the plane or start from scratch, I'll happily send the scans over.
Nice resource, Bee. Is that a slide-out map table in the middle cockpit photo?

Also sorry for my part in the hijack.
What was the status of the model shown in the original post?
Does someone have access to that?
The fact that it is out there is good and bad. If we could get it then it is very good. The bad is that since everyone knows it is out there -it may discourage anyone from starting a Devastator model from scratch.
