Here it is now as George Preddy's " Cripes a Mighty". This was his last plane before being shot down by friendly fire in Dec of 1944. It is known as one of the most decorated planes of the War.

The plane was repainted in Silver metallic from the blue nose back and re assigned as PE from its original HO. The tail was painted and new serial number added. Kill count and canopy art were also added along with his signature barber shop stripe antenna and control surface accents. The plane was also fitted with twin rear view mirrors as seen on the real aircraft.
