FME erk Posted March 21, 2019 Share Posted March 21, 2019 I purchased the 32nd trolley acc from Iconicair and thought about other pieces of ground equipment that I could possibly have alongside the HK Lancaster when I come to build and display the beast . . . Although I have some details/photos of what was contained within I thought I would just go with the basic structure and have it with the canvas screen down, (it will save any embarrassment on my part).

FME erk Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 This basically is a box unless you were to detail the inside with a small petrol engine, fuel tank, an air compressor and its air tank. This may be a slight cheat but I intend to display it alongside a Nissen hut in the background . . . . Having now painted the square frame, next on the agenda with be the 'curtains' down each of the four sides. I have a tow hitch to put in place as well as a small jockey wheel and the stability legs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FME erk Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Cracking on with a bit more . . . Some side curtains and the stability legs to put on . . . David 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FME erk Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Done a little more . . . Just to put the stability legs in place, shown in the front, just about there I think although I am having to think about the colour of the canvas covers. The one good photo I have seen of this trailer, located in front of a crashed Wellington, clearly shows these covers to be rather light in appearance ?? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
