LN-KEH Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 (edited) Looks like an upgrade from the Airmodel vacuform and the injection moulded Mach2 kits of this aircraft. Wekusta 5/6 operated one of these in Norway (Ar 232A-08/10: Code TC+EG) http://www.forums.luftwaffedata.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=681&view=previous Image on Pinterest Edited August 19, 2018 by LN-KEH Added links Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Callahan Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I have seen a lot to be liked about the announced Mars program, but would prefer they at least get something released so that we can fairly evaluate the molding quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some explanation of the delays: Quality... If you have the lates releases of the Amodel/ or Dora or AMP or Mikro-Mir - you're in... Same know-how/tech etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I had seen that posting before. This kit does seem pretty reminiscent of AModel. Where is it available? I've checked on Hannants, Sprue Bros, and even Hobby Terra and haven't found it.

I've been dealing with Ivan Kolenko for years now and it's always been satisfactory. Sometimes shipping out of the Ukraine can take a bit and there are times it takes longer than expected for him to have his stock in hand and ready for shipment but I've always had success in my dealings with him and it's tough to beat his prices.
