jean Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 Bonsoir Patrice, I haven't seen the Airfix C-47, but I believe it is a super kit! So you could have chosen a worse model to build! I must congratulate you on your reading material! Wing Masters is really top notch. Have fun!!! JR 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevej60 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 That's a good start Patrice,it's a shame all that detail get's lost when the fuselage is closed up, with Airfix putting so much in to the interior's of their new multi engined kit's in 1/72 it would be great to have a see through option.

TEMPESTMK5 Posted February 17, 2019 Author Share Posted February 17, 2019 Good evening This week end I placed the rudder and wings But I must have made a mistake somewhere during the build because there is a ''hole'' at the root and it is bigger on the other side I hade to use some plastic card to solve that ..
