Thanks for looking in Maru, the Dragin 110 kits are just so enjoyable to build. This is my second and have two more in the stash. Regards.

monthebiff Posted May 7, 2022 Author Share Posted May 7, 2022 Been busy working on the wings/ wheel wells and have these built up, painted and fitted in to the wings. and on to the difficult part of the wing assembly which is getting the engine nacelles built up and looking neat and tidy. I've moved away from the kit instructions on this area and will build the panels from the bottom up. Regards.

monthebiff Posted May 8, 2022 Author Share Posted May 8, 2022 (edited) Starboard wing completed and pretty appealing with the way the engine nacelle finished up. I will take some step by step assembly pics off the port nacelle for anyone planning this build as it's a tricky area. Regards.

My son arranged for me to have "special" access to it....all but clambering up into the cockpit (not allowed because of radiation from the dials believe it or not!!) but I was able to get up close and personal. There are several shots in the "walkaround" section on the LSP website. monthebiff 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are several shots in the "walkaround" section on the LSP website. That must have been a proper treat for you Max and didn't realise instrument dials would give out that much radiation. Love the walk around pictures as well, thank you for sharing ( didn't realise they were available in the walkaround section. Regards. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right Nick, it’s the standard wing-mounted tank, can’t remember it’s size though. But I take odds with your statement about 110s being a 2-man crew till the G’s……day fighters perhaps that’s true but I think not for E and F night fighters.

That was my understanding as well @mozart I've seen images of in-flight D's, E's and F's with 3-man crews - even not in the NF role. The Dackelbauch equipped recce birds had 3 man crews as well (extra pair of eyes). Just had a look through John Vasco's book, some of his images back up your statement. I suppose it did come down to being role-dependent. @nmayhew DML got the seats right I believe - up to the D variant. The E's and onwards all had the webbed tandem seat Edited May 10, 2022 by IainM monthebiff and mozart 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
