  1. Well I bet you think that it's a Fieseler Fi 156 Storch. You'd be right, and wrong smile.png

    Immediately after the liberation of France in 1944, the production of Fi 156 at the Morane-Saulnier factory was continued at the request of the Armée de l'Air and designated MS 500. Production continued toll 1965 after some 925 aircraft had been built.

    Started this old kit today and after about six hours work got it to this stage.

  2. Flawless job, and on such a little plane. Impressive.

     

    Thank you but I wouldn't call it flawless.

     

    What a gorgeous scheme  :wub:

     

    Lovely build too. Seen the kit too, and it looks neat, especially the wing strut alignment trick.

     

    Thanks, whilst the strut alignment is easier the joint to the wings is nowhere near as strong as their Gladiator even when rigged.

  3. I was lucky enough to not only count Edgar as a friend but to have helped him when we was both researching K5054. We swapped notes (his was far more extensive than mine).

    Edgar was a gentleman of the old school and a man of a generous nature both with his knowledge and friendship.

     

    RIP Edgar

  4. I did look into the pricing for a friend in USA but we thought it would be prohibative.

     

    Just done a quick check and for one 6 draw unit your looking a $20 for UPS on top of the price. Mindyou if you spend a lot I beleive you get the postage free, worth checking out.
