I am in the planning stages for a diorama that will depict American soldiers finding the Horton flying wing. The 1/32 kit from Zoukei Mura will be used.
I am looking for pics, weblinks, or any reference material that people may have. I have found a few online, but the more the better. The aim is not to be bang on exact depiction of the event.
I would also like interior pics of Luftwaffe Hangars as well...
Thanks in advance!

Greg,
The Military Aviation Museum in Pungo, VA has a Luftwaffe hangar that was disassembled in Germany, transported to the US, and reassembled at the museum. I used to be in the modeling club that meets monthly at the museum and can arrange for them to get you as many photos as you would like. Send me a PM with your email address and I'll pass it on to the club president.
