I'm sure that Verlinden did a Hellcat cockpit. (or was it Corsair?) You never know your luck on ebay. The wheelwells are shallow and a lot of under engine/oil cooler/intake detail is absent. I'm sure that a copy of the Airfix 1/24th instructions would be of enormous help to scratch-build what's needed. Dowload it from Scalemates!

Airfix To Re-Release Classic 1:24 Mustang
Ossington 1 replied to Duncan Doenitz's topic in LSP Discussion
I don't know if Airfix have plans to replace their 1/24th range with updated kits, like their Spitfire but if they do, I'd go for, in order of desire: Harrier, Mustang and 109. That said, I'd buy a re-release again if it had and additional sprue, for U/C, transparencies, wheels etc -

To be honest, I would, every couple of years or so, fondle the Echelon kit and wonder if it was possible to 'reverse engineer' it by pouring resin, or similar, over the shapes to make a useable platten to vacform cloned copies as I always fancied making more than one T.7 and then maybe selling-on the kit. Now I don't have to! Great news! Newark Air Museum has both single and dual seaters, should anyone want photos.

Oh No!!!! I've got the 1/32 vacform in the loft! I was hoping it would supplement my pension one day! Bah!

USAAF Aerial Photos of Britain

Direct link: https://historicengland.org.uk/images-books/archive/collections/photographs/usaaf-collection/ Baseball and Bombers? Pfff! Who thinks up this stuff? -
I was going to type that! It's been one of my favourites for a couple of years now. I check it daily after 1800 hrs. If it is new to you, you will spend hours working back through old posts. Very, very addictive!

Thread creep here: what is an Echelon 1/32 Hunter T.7 worth?

It held cartridges for the verey pistol. The canopy had to be opened and the barrel pointed overboard first. https://ibb.co/QDW21zm
