FOUGA CM.170 Magister - Daco 1/32

[quang]

Hi all, 
After many months of longing, I’ve decide to put aside the gloom and delve into that god-forsaken box, source of my ecstasy and agony.

 

The Box as it arrived 15 months ago.

 

Inside, another plain box…

 

Opened…

 

Underneath the blurb, the styrene

 

The full menu deployed…

 

No less than 5 cockpit lay-outs 

 

… and 13 IP configurations…

 

… and 4 types of radio

 

Also included are 2 complete Marbore II turbines

 

Landing gear with brake lines included…

 

Two types of tyres and m.g.

 

Clear parts detailed inside and out…

 

 

And to wrap it all up, 5 types of pilot helmets complete with clear visors.

This is just the appetizer.
We’ll deal with the main course in the next chapter.

Until then,

Cheers,
Quang

Such an iconic trainer. That will be interesting to watch.

 

It will be a Belgian aircraft, I presume?

French one! 1950'

Be careful, it will be a case of casus belli...

Looks really good in the box. 

This should be fun to follow.

Provided, of course, that there will be more produced for you to not buy.

[TBC]

I'll be watching this for sure. Don't break anything as spare parts are most certainly not available.

[dutik]

Interesting. Watching you!

It would look stunning in Patrouille de France colours...

If more are produced, I'll have to get nine. No question.

Let me correct you Quang: my Fouga is not limited to 250 copies, not at all...

I need to sell 2000-3000 kits to get break even... that means I need to sell that many kits to see the invested money back before I make any profit on the whole project...

And it's 'thanks' to AMK and Kinetic that I released the Fouga in 1/32, as it was originally planned to be 1/48...

 

The Fouga kit is also the 'Magnum opus' of Philippe Goulard, the designer of all the 500 parts who designed many high quality kits for Heller, then Airfix, and until his retirement for Revell (and DACO 🙂 ). So you may congratulate him too...
