Johan Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 Hello, Would anyone be able to direct me to pictures of the rear part of the cockpit of an Fw 190 A5? I m trying to figure out what I need to do to correct the rather crude parts supplied in HobbyBoss 1/18 version.

Johan Posted September 3, 2018 Author Share Posted September 3, 2018 (edited) Hello and thank you for taking your time! Much appreciated, and a lot of information that I will come back to. The Soviet training film is such a time stamp, thank you Laurent! The scribd.com link will be very useful, this looks like a very good online source, thanks Jerry! And that 200+ pages walk-around is just brilliant! Thank you Charles! Now with all this information at hands I realize that I will need to completely rebuild that seat and seat armor (and the rest of the cockpit). I knew the kit has issues and this again is proving the fact. Interestingly Dragon turned out a 1/48 back in the 90's with a similar rendition:Hosted on Fotki Maybe HobbyBoss just scaled that up tp 1/18? Hosted on Fotki The Eduard offering looks much more in line with the referncesyou have posted: Hosted on Fotki So - that is where I will be heading. Jut still not sure it is worth the time, this is the 1/18 rendition of the throttle leaver in the center... Hosted on Fotki Thank you fr your time!
