Av8fan Posted July 4, 2015 Author Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) I have no idea how the canopy opens. Great question. I did find a nice bit of related detail on the 100P FB page. Canopy latch: https://www.facebook.com/TheBugatti100pProject/photos/pcb.703216279755514/703213936422415/?type=1&theater\ https://www.facebook.com/TheBugatti100pProject/photos/pcb.703216279755514/703214146422394/?type=1&theater I have no idea if this is included in the kits currently available, but it looks like something a scratch builder would enjoy making. Awesome work. Edited July 4, 2015 by Av8fan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

general melchett Posted August 21, 2015 Share Posted August 21, 2015 Martin, looks like the rear section is fastened into place and just lifts off ala certain performance gliders, http://www.bugattipage.com/newspics4/100p-book1.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rustywelder Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Sharkit have just released a 1/72 scale version.....now available at Hannants IIRC, someone also does a 1/48 version ? Ken Don't forget the 1/32 kit by lone star. Funny how a plane that was never completed has a kit in every major scale except 1/144, but some significant frontline aircraft are still lacking a kit in any scale.
