Amodel, 1/72 IAR-80c. IAR-80c no. 279, Escadrila 45 Vanatoare, Targsor, Aug, 1943. The IAR 80 was a Romanian World War II low-wing monoplane, all-metal monocoque fighter and ground-attack aircraft. When it first flew, in 1939, it was [...]

Airfix 1/72 Messerschmitt Me262A-1A

Hi there, This kit was a part of the Airfix Dogfight Double but is not done in the box scheme. As a relatively new kit I thought it would be fairly easy but the fit of certain part, specifically the engine wing mounts was tricky. This [...]

Revell/MPM 1/72 Junkers Ju 290Z Zwilling w/He-178P

Hauptman Steinhoorn was a true envisionist (some called him mad): upon seeing the first Ju 290s developed from the civil Ju 90 versions, he put pressure on everybody to adopt Junkers concept of joining two 290s with a common central wing, [...]

Grumman F8F-1 Bearcat - 1/72

This is one of the US-Navy cats that I like really more, due to its aggressive looking, powerful engine and operational history. The kit is the old Monogram released in 1976 in a new Revell box with new and good decals. Despite the quality [...]

The First and the Last: Junkers G.38 & Arado E.555

It might have been another very cold January 1945 night, but for Hauptman Ziegel and his crew, the situation could not have been hotter: there they were, flying at 30,000ft with their Amerikabomber fully loaded. Took off from Bordeaux at [...]
