Oh and I think the Bilek is the Airfix one, sorry I know couldnt resist it ! If I recall correctly I have a strange looking version in the stash I think by MPM with 2 individual cockpits and covers rather than one long one, is this some sort of trainer ? cheers Pat Yes, he did Pat! The build is already underway in works in progress and major alterations nearly complete as we speak! Thanks to everyone for the feedback. It's become quite an educational little side thread!

Ian Well done Ian, look forward to seeing the finished article. Great news I don't this this one will need your wood effect skills or extensive rigging, like the Floatplane GB cheers Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian ones were yellow IIRC as well. Selwyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
