Yep,a Wimpy. Trumpeter Vickers Wellington Mk Ic.

Several months ago Chef built one in 72 and then I got this one from a friend for S.S. last year. I figured it is time to bring it out and see what kind of dam... err. Wellington I can produce.

Instead of going with the pit first I chose to assemble the engines. I thought that the 32 scale R 2800 was a pain in the kiester but this tiny one has its own challenges, mostly due to the size.

Then I went to the pit
the ip is one of those size challenges again due to size.

I doubt any of these will be seen once the fuse gets closed up but the parts are there to go into the plane so that's what I'll do.

this is actually 48, a friend of mine did one in 72.

Ok Paul, I made mistake , sorry.
Still looks good though.

Paul,

I'm following this with interest and will be looking for your opinion on how this kit goes together. I have a soft spot for the Wimpy, have actually examined the 1/48 Trumpeter kit the other day, but are a bit scared about this fabric texture all over the a/c.
