Nikola Topalov Posted August 29 Posted August 29 Hi guys, As I have finally finished Tami's He219, I am going back to big scale with Tami's Mossie in the markings of captain Pickard's bird during the famous operation Jericho. In my opinion possibly the best airplane of WW2. As for AM, I will be using HGW seatbelts, Master guns and Eduard exterior set. Best, Nikola 6

crazypoet Posted September 5 Posted September 5 I agree with y’all about the Mossie - she’s both elegant and deadly, and was able to perform well in pretty much every role possible for a warbird of the era 🙏 watching with interest! 3

DocRob Posted September 8 Posted September 8 The IP and cockpit look beautiful, makes me want to open the box of mine. Cheers Rob 1
Nikola Topalov Posted September 11 Author Posted September 11 Well, after 79 hours at the bench so far, the central portion of the cockpit is finished. Left to do - the rest of the airplane... 😜 8 1

Count0 Posted 4 hours ago Posted 4 hours ago Read a story (No idea where now) That a particular pilot would make his right seater kneel in the seat and look out the back for sneaky Huns all the way back from a mission. These were still vulnerable to getting bounced if they allowed it. So one set of eyes forward, the other watching their 6. All the way home.
