by Jeff Groves on October 17, 2024 · in Aviation · 17 ≡

Ju 290A-4 W.Nr. 110165 was originally assigned to 5 FAGr on long-range reconnaissance flights supporting U-boat operations in the Atlantic. As the Allies pushed into France many 5 FAGr aircraft were transferred to KG 200, the [...]

Tempest

by IAN JACKSON on October 16, 2024 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

Bought this on impulse at my local (only) toy shop a couple of months ago... at one point I thought about giving it away, but I'm glad i didn't. Like the wee Jet Provost, this - IMHO - is a future Airfix classic. It's a gem of a kit, build [...]

1/72 HELLER DC-6B

by Steve Hawley on October 14, 2024 · in Aviation · 13 ≡

I wanted to build a United DC-6 since it was the first prop airliner I flew on way back in 1963. Fond memories. I thought the HELLER was a good choice. Well, let's be frank, it the only choice in a larger scale. One reviewer referred to [...]

by George Schembri on October 11, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Another quick build from Hobby Boss, added seat belts and a new pitot tube. No place to jam enough nose weight, I had to place the last required amount in the front nose wheel well. Painted with Mr. Hobby Aqueous paints and decals from the [...]

1/72 RAF Mustang Mk.III (P-51C) Vanity Call Letters

by George Schembri on October 8, 2024 · in Aviation · 10 ≡

Inspired by a previous post, I searched for an aircraft with call letters ‘G-A-S’ and found this P-51C with 112 Squadron RAF. There’s actually a ‘J’ required for my complete initials as I do have two middle names, always a [...]

Hasegawa Grumman TBM-1C Avenger

by Jeff Groves on October 8, 2024 · in Aviation · 11 ≡

This is the Grumman TBM-1C Avenger flown by a LTJG Rothwell from USS Petrof Bay (CVE 80). The kit is from Hasegawa, decals are from Techmod sheet 72128. No surprises from either the kit or the decals, a very enjoyable build! Construction [...]

by Roland Sachsenhofer on October 8, 2024 · in Aviation · 12 ≡

Although only seven examples of this extremely attractive and highly capable flying boat were built from the mid-1930s onwards, each of these flying boats, designed as “flying boat airliners”, was to have a short but all the more [...]

With its name derived from Irish mythology, the McDonnell F2H Banshee was an early jet fighter operated by the United States Navy, the United States Marine Corps and the Royal Canadian Navy. The Banshee was developed during the mid to late [...]
