206 the hard way done!

by Rob Anderson on March 4, 2014 · in Uncategorized · 20 ≡

Well, I am glad she is finished, but what a fiddly kit it was to build. I think I made a few of my own problems by doing some things out of sequence, like adding the landing gear at the end (which requires modification of the mounts early [...]

by Simon Whitney on March 4, 2014 · in Aviation · 33 ≡

Well here is. I won this kit on the random draw last year and I finally finished. It has been a fun build but not without a problem or two, down to me rather than the kit itself. See the WIP for details. (link) Painted in the F.A.A. [...]

What we have here is Ken West's 1/48 scale XB-70. It is a paper model and very impressive when done by a paper master. (Which I am not!) I saw one completed by Mr. West himself at the EAA museum and had to have one. I didn't care that it [...]
