Jamie @ Sovereign Hobbies Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Hi folks, Can anyone offer any experience-based suggestions to improve the cockpit a little of the Airfix 1/48 Spitfire XIX? I am thinking some resin would be good. The things I'd like to address are the cockpit sidewalls, floor and fuselage frames. Also, does anyone know if the XIX seat was the same as earlier Merlin marks? Thanks all, Jamie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don McIntyre Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 You can order those Barracudacast items directly from the manufacturer, although as the OP is in the UK Hannants may be his best bet. http://barracudacals.com/index.php 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie @ Sovereign Hobbies Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 I shall get that on order soon. I need Barracuda's prop anyway. Surprised I forgot about their cockpit actually... ahem! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
