We will release in April 2015 a new kit at 1/72 nd scale - four boxes will be provided with small differences. This well known aircraft (well - in France at least) has never been produced in injected at this scale ... some quite spectacular schemes will be proposed!

 

To be followed

I've been waiting since the late 1960's for a kit of the Stampe ever since seeing the Tiger Club ones at a Shoreham Airshow in '68 and the Belgian team at Biggin in 67 onwards.

I did have a go at converting one from the then Airfix Tiger moth. by rounding off the wing tips, shortening the lower wing and making a new fin and tailplane from thin Balsa wood. Got as far as painting it as a les Manchots aircraft but never got further with markings!

Release is now expected for the 3rd week of May.
