Swordfish again

[Boelie]

Hello again

I started with my 1/32 Swordfish (dutch 860 squadron).

As far as I know the fwd machine gun was deleted, so I cut out the machinegun "bulge" in the RH fuselage part

Trumpeteer was so nice to include 2 separate fuselages in this kit , so I could smash one up

Also I assembled some sub assy's (wings, stabilizer, engine parts and ordnance)

I am thinking of modifying the wings with extended slats....

cut out the slats in the wings and replace them with scratchbuild extended slats

but I have no detailed pictures or drawings of the cavity behind the slats or the attachment on the wings of the slats .

That's going to be a little more tricky, because unfortunatelyTrumpeteer didn't provide a second set of wings in the kit

Furthermore I want to install the ASV Yagi antennas on the topwing LE and wingstruts. (also scratchbuild)

Accesoires I am also thinking of are:

A set of resin sagged wheels (Mastercaster)

resin 60 lb rockets (Fisher models)

Eduard Big Ed PE set

1/32 Vickers K (GasPatch)

1/32 pilot figure (Sidcot suit) ......(Wings cockpit figures)

I read that WW1 sidcot suits were still used in wwII is that true and was it the same ?

And can anyone help me with detailed pictures,drawings of the extended Slats of the Swordfish

Sidcot suits were designed in 1917 by Sidney Cotton,and used by the RAF up to the 1950's.
