stevej60 Posted December 21, 2018 Author Share Posted December 21, 2018 Thank's Tony,not sure of the size,the large radome is in the kit the video shows a small version on the upper wing might have a spare ww2 type in my collection. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see what you mean about the top of the wing,........ it isn`t a radome mate it is a radio DF Look `acorn' fairing,...... the same as found on many 1040`s-50`s US aircraft, Dakota`s had them under the nose and lots of types had them above the fuselage,..... have you got any in your spares box? Either that or an unmade kit which may have one on the sprue? Cheers Tony 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Masters Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Looking excellent Steve. I always forget what a huge wingspan these things had. Quite the bird! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
