elric Posted June 26, 2016 Share Posted June 26, 2016 (edited) As we all know, the upkeep mine was used by 617 Sqn on Operation Chastise against the great Dams of Germany, better known as the bouncing bomb or the Dambusters Raid The E type Trolley was larger than other trolleys & used for heavier loads such as the Upkeep, Grand Slam & tallboy The Kit comes in a neat box not oversized for once Inside we have four bags of Resin parts the main frame the Upkeep mine nice touch keyed in ends so fit will be correct Front tow bar & axel + jacks Mine Support, side trays & rear jacks Rear axel supports, hand brake,steering wheel & towing hook coupling the Wheels with separate tyres & weighted bottoms Should look nice with some Olive Green paint, another nice model from Iconicair well done Graham, will look nice as a Stand alone model even better if the 1/32 Lancaster ever appears Edited June 26, 2016 by elric theseeker, D.B.

Royboy Posted June 28, 2016 Share Posted June 28, 2016 Looks great, just need the Dambusters Lanc to go with it now! I hope a tractor unit with some bomb trolleys might also be considered at some time in the future too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
