SPECIAL NOTICE: A new 64-page booklet titled US 110' Subchasers in Action has just been written by T. Garth Connelly that can be of help to anyone wanting to build either type of subchaser. It contains numerous details and photographs, including plan and elevation drawings, of SCs of both generations. It further provides information about the placement of fittings and ordnance, plus painting suggestions. You can buy a copy at MilitaryIssue.com, HistoricAviation.com, Squadron.com and at other locations. Read a review of the book.
I've just completed the layout for the revision of my PT BOATS IN ACTION book. I've added some 'new information' on some things I did not cover in the original book and it has all 'new' photos that I did not put in there the first time. There are some color ones too. Watch for availability of this book from Nimble Books Store...coming SOON!
I THINK and HOPE you'll like both of them ... I put a lot of work into both of them. I'm really proud of the outcome of the SC book. From what I've seen of it.
And...don't miss the write-up on my most recent ride on the restored PT-728. It was INCREDIBLE!
PT Consulting was founded to allow me to aid fellow authors, historians and scale modelers as we preserve our heritage and our history.
