imatt88 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Great stuff! I have this kit, and this will help when the time comes thierry laurent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 Happy to see that one is appreciated. It seems the low price of the kit resulted in a lot of sales but the documentation about the plane is not prolific and the number of built kits is rather low in comparison. By the way, I will have to release a version 1.1 as I found another problem: the shape of the main landing gear doors is noticeably incorrect. The most obvious error is the fantasy squared step in the front edge of the bay. Unfortunately, all photoetched sets copied the shape of the kit parts to detail them rather than offering accurately shaped ones.

kalashnikov-47 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 THANK YOU! This is a great one and I have bookmarked this link. I have collected most of the available aftermarket stuff (doesn't somebody make resin wheels?) but figuring out the MiG-17F afterburner nozzle still escapes me. thierry laurent 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted February 25, 2018 Author Share Posted February 25, 2018 You're welcome! Profimodeller makes resin wheels and the Eduard set has a part for the exhaust nozzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
