This one was built by my late grandad in France probably just before the war. Any idea what plane it is? Wood, metal and plastic. It vaguely looks like a Boeing B9 or a Martin B10.

Thanks for the confirmation John, I wasn't too sure because the front turret wasn't built how it was supposed to be. I'll do some mild restoration and put it on a wall for display. Almost a century old now.

Brilliant that you have your Grandad's model still. He was clearly a very skilled man who would have put a lot of effort into making it.

Thanks Richie and Ben. I just repaired and cleaned it. Fun to see what the pre plastic kits looked like. Nice to have a memory from my grandad and childhood too. It's back on a wall now, just the way it always has been.
