Homebee Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) VFR Models is to release 1/72nd Beechcraft Baron 55 & 58 3D printed kits Source: https://www.facebook.com/vfrmodels/posts/pfbid02aEyWfVHMMJhduRtBpfgnS89LX2HyArpKkLTxS4PQnYr25SE1vJ7UoBk1Aq2SkK1ul Quote Thanks to all who have shown such an interest in the Beagle Pup - everyone loves a plucky British underdog! Now onto the next project... I've been working on 2 kits of the Beechcraft Baron. I do think it is extraordinary that an aeroplane which has been in constant manufacture for 61 years has never had a kit - in any scale. Well, it soon will. 2 kits planned - the Baron 55 (short, including early models with flat windshields and short nosecones) and the capacious 58. I have been playing with potential schemes - one thing my research has uncovered is that the Baron is big in Brazil, where its long trans-Amazonian legs clearly win the day - so there'll definitely be a Brazilian scheme in there. Some artwork, CAD and prototypes... V.P. Edited October 4, 2022 by Homebee 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
