I'll have to do a Contrail Baffin or Ripon as an extra in NMCZ now... The He51 looks like a really nice kit. It will be interesting to see how well the struts fit🤞- I have no experience with Hasegawa. Regards, Adrian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JOCKNEY Posted March 9, 2023 Author Share Posted March 9, 2023 Struts on, and a wee bit of filler Next to find out if the struts are long enough Cheers Pat 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jinxman Posted March 9, 2023 Share Posted March 9, 2023 😮 Nice progress - it looks like a very tidy kit. Back on Saturday, (weather permitting), and get straight onto looking for those decals. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted March 11, 2023 Share Posted March 11, 2023 I remember getting the landplane version but I skipped the float plane - several struts too far for my patience back then. How did anybody build biplanes before super glue came along 😱 John 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdrianMF Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Smashing! So the struts were the right length, or was there fiddling to be done? Regards, Adrian 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards, Adrian Hi mate No I found the struts to be OK for length but just the normal fiddle trying to get everything to line up.

JOCKNEY Posted July 9, 2023 Author Share Posted July 9, 2023 Long overdue a return to this one. Decals on, and I've tidied up the rigging since the pictures. I'm calling this one done, it's been great to get this one finished, it's waited a long time ! Cheers Pat 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
