by Frederick J Seitz III on March 30, 2016 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

This is the Pro-Modeler kit in 1:48 scale. I built her a few years back as an OOB project, and if memory serves me correctly, overall it was a pleasant experience with a few hiccups. Hiccup number one, was the fit in the wing root. Not [...]
