Propeller of Grumman Wildcat F4F-4 Wildcat ?
Posted: Sun Nov 29, 2015 6:25 am
Hi guys,
about to finalize my, sort of speed build (yes, pictures will be shared) of my Airfix WIldcat...
What is left now is more or a less some conservative weathering before I will share, first time in my life something in the "completed builds" section...
What I would need to know is, if the propeller blades of this type of Wildcat was wooden or metal? I guess it was metal, though not 100% sure... And to make a stupid error weathering a wooden blade with aluminium color of so would be kind of stupid mistake..
I have tried to google to get an answer, but without really being successful...
So I turn to you guys, the incredible database of knowledge..Were the blades wooden or metal ?
