  1. A hint about the release date Andreas? And will there be a FuG 240 option with the kit? Hans
  2. What Loic said! Impressive, Phil!
  3. Thanks Kev, for your exellent review! Yet another aircraft I would never dreamed of to appear in kit form. Now, how about that Douglas O-38P floatplane?
  4. Thierry, Both airframes exist in the form of replica's in museums Hans
  5. Such a cool aircraft. I'll do a yellow wings. Hope it sells so well for Glenn it funds a Vought Vindicator and the long-awaited Devastator. Hans
  6. Your tread reads like a thesis on the art of modeling and employing new technologies, Hubert. I really enjoy following it along! Cheers, Hans
  7. Thank you so much guys for your help! Graham that is very generous of you. I' ll contact you offline. I' ve also found a set drawm by Harry Robinson, published in the october '79 issue of Scale Models, made from measurents, taken of an actual airframe.
  8. Looking for such drawings to make something completely different out of my 1;24 Airfix Spitfire Mk Vb kit. Thanks in advance for any pointers in the right direction. Hans
  9. Rob & Ron, thank you for the clarification. Hans
  10. Out of curiosity I printed his Spit mk. 22 drawings. The rear fuselage measured from the rear of the exit door to the rudder hinge line is ca 5 mm longer in 1:24 scale on his drawing than the same aera, measured on the Airfix 1:24 mk v Spitty and the Peter Cooke mk xiv drawings, both of which have the same lenght. Did the mk. 22 have a longer rear fuselage, is the drawing incorrect, or is it due to cropping and stretching by the printing software?
  11. I don't know that, but he claims he used factory drawings to create his Seafire fr. 47 drawings. He probably did just that for this set. Revell's kit is based on a 1:1 aircraft, if I remember correctly.
  12. Hi Nic, Cool subject for a build! I have an exploded view drawing of the Wyvern (1956 vintage) and partial cockpit shot that might be useful. If you send me your e-mailadress I' ll send you pics. Hans
  13. Thank you gents for the pointers.
  14. Does anyone have a photograph of this specific subtype of the Cyclone engine? I need a good pic of it for my Curtiss Hawk III conversion. The Hawk III was the export version of the Curtiss BF2C-1 fighter of the US Navy. All versions of this engine appear to be slightly different from one another, hence the question. TIA Hans
  15. The 486 (NZ) Typhoons had black undersides, obliterating the underwing national markings. Upper surfaces had standard dayfighter camouflage. Model Aircraft monthly had a feature on nightfighting Typhoons in its december 2006 issue.
  16. In my opinion Hasegawa's Fw 190 is rather toylike and it is difficult to correct the kit's errors, so there is certainly room for a better Wuerger at a lower price

    Revelll is not going to disclose to anyone what other releases in 1:32 there will be next year before january 1st 2015. I have spoken to Ulii, head of development of Revell, who attended the Dutch IPMS nationals. He told me that Revell might be interested in doing the Dornier Do 17/215, but as yet there are no firm plans and if it is going to happen it won't be before 2016. So there is hope. Hans
  18. Interesting Subject, Jan. Looking very good so far. I have to admit I have never heard of this aeroplane before. Cheers, Hans
  19. Winner of "kit of the year 2014" award in my opinion, just by choice of subject and its execution. Keep them coming, Glen!
  20. Very nice, Peter. You can be proud of this beautiful model. Hans
  21. You could make a Romanian F-2 (or G-2) nightfighter ( ex NJG 6) out of the Dragon kit with the Fug 202/212 antennae. You will have to convert the engine nacelles and prop to "G" sttandard, though. Scale drawings can be found in one of the older issues of Revi magazine, there is a link in their website http://www.revi.cz/. The drawings are from the same guy that did the drawings for the Revi book on the C-E versions. Succes! Hans
  22. Thanks Kevin, another nice review. Hans
  23. Peter, I have looked into doing the same aircraft. There are no afternarket Hs 293 missiles available in 1:32 and on top of that, the French tested the experimental television-guided version. I am looking forward seeing a Ju 188 being built in the same quality as yor Tyhoon. Hans
  24. Hi John, Have you thought about contacting the author of the Ju 388 book, Vernalaeken, directly? Perhaps he can help. He has a website on the Ju 388 with contact info and undoubtedly has gathered much more info on the airaft than is in his book. Hans
