Iain Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Ace! This one's on my shopping list for the New Year I think! Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 The plane looks quite balanced aesthetically for a radial engine plane. So, when I got my kit, I was quite surprised to see the fuselage was so stubby! It nearly looks like a Buffalo one! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Well, it is based on the Seversky P-35! I had a plan, way, way, back to convert a P-35 to an Re.2000 - not as far fetched as it sounds! Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thierry laurent Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I had a similar idea with the Williams Bros kit but fortunately I never got it! :-) Iain 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSP_Ray Posted December 13, 2018 Share Posted December 13, 2018 Yup, LSP Dan was working on one before his timely death. But this one is really much better than the P-35 kit! BTW, there is an extra part in the kit - an armored panel with pad for back of cockpit. It does not show in instructions or the build posted online. It is hard to tell from photos if it is there, although I am pretty sure there should at least be the pad installed (mounting brackets are included) on the roll over post. I have asked Silver Wings about it but haven't heard back yet. Stay tuned! LSP_K2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
