Continuing with the Latin theme, this time I've started a Peruvian Avro 504K, stationed at Las Palmas in the early 20s. The old Airfix / MPC is expectedly lacking in detail, and the fit of the bottom wing leaves much to be desired, but has otherwise so far been enjoyable. Blue Rider decals will at least make for a slightly more colorful finish. I expect it'll be a while before this one is done, being that I need a some paint and I've just lost my job. In the meantime, I can finish some small detail painting - the engine, cowling, wheels, and prop. In the meantime I have 2 P-40s, a Stearman, a BU131, and an RWD05 to see to the finish line. Thanks, Tweener

Both Airfix and Amodels Avro 504's have the early type of undercarriage with a central ski. After the WW I several Avro 504's (e.g Swedish ones) got a Siskin style undercarriage strut arrangement like in the Matchbox Siskin. Are there any aftermarket struts, plastic, resin or metal to get?
