Administrators Clunkmeister Posted July 11, 2019 Administrators Share Posted July 11, 2019 Been looking for these for years and years and years. Some two stage love! Hubba hubba hubba! 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted July 11, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted July 11, 2019 I think the HK kit doesn’t need much in mods for this version. Just basic PR stuff, but I do apparently like aircraft with lots of Hi-Viz red on them. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Clunkmeister Posted July 11, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted July 11, 2019 OK so he lost it on the roll out. Rack up enough taildragger time and you too will eventually have a sporty rollout. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grunhertz Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Looks like a good enough reason to me I liked the HK kit it builds well 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 I think the bomb bay doors have the camera windows moulded as knockouts with corresponding windows to put in them. It does build up really nicely. Too bad mine didn't last that long after completion. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Clunkmeister Posted July 11, 2019 Author Administrators Share Posted July 11, 2019 I heard that too, Carl. It should be an easy conversion. And a unique one as well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GusMac Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Nice Ernie. Never seen the stars'n'bars with the star segmented like that. Does it represent something specific? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently all it is is someone forgot to remove the masking before spraying the emblems, and they just left it alone. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GusMac Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Thanks for the explanation Ernie. Love that it was just simple cock-up and they left it! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that it was just simple cock-up and they left it! It’s actually explained on the decal sheet. Which I found odd because a PR Mossie wasn’t exactly an aircraft that would be considered disposable or short lived. Most lasted a very, very long time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GusMac Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 I suppose the hope was that nothing from 't'other side' ever got close enough to have a good look and notice the mistake! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they were pretty much untouchable and invincible unless they had an engine problem. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
