I visited the Niagara Aerospace Museum's workshop yesterday with
one of the volunteers who is working on the P-39 Q pulled out
of a Russian lake a couple of years ago.

Al is looking for help from scale modelers who might be able
to help him age the re-covered rudder, elevator, and ailerons
on the airplane.

The museum hasn't decided how to display the aircraft:
like new; as it was when it crashed; as it was when it
was recovered from the lake.

I'm hoping someone on the list is friends with someone who
is good at weathering techniques.

Thanks for any leads you can give me.
