Hello everybody!

I was looking at some of the upcoming BOS screenshots and i got intrigued by the sbd-3 dive bomber flaps shape... red with holes...

So i browsed tru internet and i found some nice vet stories about BDS , if you have 10 minutes to spare it might be a nice reading for all aviation enthusiast like me.

Have a nice day!
