I don't usually build 1/72 scale models, but I have liked this plane since I first saw it in the old TV series Sky King (Yes, I am that old). I thought this kit might be a challenge when I got it, but I am recuperating from some surgery [...]

While working on the T-34 Mentor, I took some pictures of a new addition to the hanger, a Cessna Bird Dog. The paint scheme is fictional, but the owner has a thing for yellow so he painted it in an Air Force paint scheme replacing yellow [...]

Cessna T-50 “Bobcat” Landing Gear Retraction Test

by G. Ley on December 1, 2018 · in Diorama · 7 ≡

Something is not right with the Cessna's landing gear and a couple of mechanics have put it up on jack-stands for a gear retraction test to determine the problem, probably something to do with the jack-screws being out of alignment. I [...]

by Alessandro Parmigiani on April 17, 2017 · in Aviation · 18 ≡

Hi all, following my previous articles about Vietnam era helicopters, this is time for a fixed-wing! In late ‘60s USAF introduced twin-powered Cessna O-2A to replace single engine Cessna O-1 (my next project). Testors/Italeri kit is [...]

Airfix 1/72 Cessna O-1 Bird Dog

by Mike Grant on July 22, 2015 · in Aviation · 52 ≡

I remember building this kit as a teenager back in the 70s, but a few years ago I had another crack at it. It's actually quite a nice little model, spoilt only by the poor clear parts and some unfortunately placed ejection-pin marks. I [...]
