A flying razor blade: the Fokker E.V/ D.VIII

by Roland Sachsenhofer on May 14, 2021 · in Aviation · 19 ≡

About the Fokker E.V/ D.VIII Even in 1918, towards the end of the Great War and after four years of diligent pioneering work to develop ever more powerful aircraft, the sight of a monoplane was still a rarity. All the more so when it was [...]

And my dad has finished the next 262. Hobby Boss kit, painted with AK Real Color RLM81/82/76, EZ line for antenna wires and brake lines. The kit includes decals for both prototypes. I don´t know why but HB printed the "V555" [...]

The road trip model – Stinson SR-9 Reliant, AMT 1/48

by Jaime Carreon on May 12, 2021 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

I am in Florida, having competed in the Top Gun RC meet a few weeks ago. My son lives not far away from where the meet was held, so we came to visit. It was only supposed to be for a few days, but has turned into a few weeks. It turned [...]

General Dynamics YF-16, Monogram 1/48

by Josh Patterson on May 11, 2021 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Bf-110G-2 ZG1, "Skeletal Hand" Revell 1/48th Scale

by Walt on May 10, 2021 · in Aviation · 24 ≡

Dauntless!

by Tim T on May 7, 2021 · in Aviation · 23 ≡

This is the 1/48 Dauntless from Academy. I chose to interpret an SBD-2 from VMSB-241, based on Midway Atoll in 1942 and, I assume, one of the planes used in the fabled attack on the Japanese fleet in June. Since it was first produced by [...]
