Recommended Posts

Thanks for all the recent responses and kind comments to this thread, I can't recommend this kit enough.

Hello, I'm searching for the 1/48 Dynavector Fairey Gannet kit. I have the Classic Airframes ASW and a 1/48 resin AEW (from Iceland). I want to raplace the resin wings on the AEW with vacu form wings-the resin ones are just too heavy. The metal landing gear from the Dynavector kit would be a nice  addition to the AEW.  Nick

Hi Nick, great idea in theory but the inner wings (or stub wings) and the main wheels are different between the ASW and AEW Gannet.  The inner wings of the AEW don't feature the leading edge sweep of the ASW types and the wheels are a plainer disc type.  The Reisn kit has got the main wheels of the wrong type aswel, unless they have been corrected since the initial photos.

You could use the outboard wing sections, and the tailplane & finlets from the Dynavector kit, but finding donors might be hard.
