Brewster F2A-3 Buffalo

F2A-3 - lengthened firewall. CDR J.C. Clifton in flight near Miami Municipal Airport (background, left), looking south-southeast; Master Field, adjacent to Municipal, is blocked from view by Clifton's right wing. During the war, the three fields in the NAS Miami complex were known simply as "Mainside" (Opa Locka), "Master" and "Municipal."

Hi, I was wondering if you,by chance have any good pics of the f2a-3 interior?just got kami de koro koros 1/144th 2a3.im gonna dremel the cockpit area out to try and put in cockpit detail.I just dont have much on the way of pics for it.The only thing i do have is the in action series book.Not much in the way of good cockpit pics.

Edward Caggiano It doesn't look like we do. All of our F2A images have been digitized and are on this fickr site, and I didn't see any cockpit shots :(

For 1/144 scale, the differences between an F2A-3 cockpit and earlier variants would be indistinguishable - other than the fact that -3 "guts" were Interior Green vs. earlier model inards being Silver lacquer.
