Stepping out of my comfort zone of Axis and into the world of the Allies i hve chosen the new tool Airfix Douglas C-47 Skytrain for my entry in the D Day G/B . I start with very little refrence material and probably not one of the paints needed (may have black). The kit arrived on the 6th from jadlamracing and was quickly opend to see what could be in such a large box. I do like the Airfix boxes as they are sturdy and look to be crush resistant and of course top opening. On examining the marking options i was happily suprised to find the exact markings of the machine i had planed to do . I had almos spent around £10.00 on some aftermarket decals FCM sheet #72-28 lucky inever got around to buying them. The Airfield at Upottery is only a few miles from my home and i have visited before on the Anual D Day event . The New airfix kit looks fantastic and the panel lines look to be spot on . I could not see one bit of flash anywhere. A quick dry fix shows that the fit looks to be excellent and i am thinking this could be a putty free build I intend to build this aircraft in flight and in the progress of droping its cargo of U.S Airbourne over the dropzone During my reserch i came across this imaginative build I intend to do this scene but in a slightly different way .
