Greetings Guys, & Gals;

 

 

..... For those of us that has been wondering, what is Eduard been up to with the P-61/A & /B aircraft

this month. I know some of us have been holding our breath. I hope this will help.

 

The first up-date I am going to show is the Main Mount Wheel Wells. *** Note*** If you are going to

build a P-61/A, or the early P-61/B, this up-date will apply to you..... On the mid production line

of the P-61/B, one of the mods covered the Main Wheel Well Doors.

 

Note: in the photo, the two part doors on this P-61/B ....  . and a line drawing .

....  .... So you may or may not what this upgrade. The up-grade ....

 

 

....  .... The exterior up-grade .... ....   ....

 

 

.... .... .

 

 

 

.... Work Calls ....... I will cover the Pilots Cockpit, Gunners cockpit, & the R/R operators position in a few minutes.

Greetings All;

 

 

Part II of Eduard's P-61 up-dates.

 

 

.... The pilots cockpit .... .... .... .... .

 

 

The gunners cockpit .... .... .

 

 

The Radio/Radar operators position ....   .... ....

 

 

 

So now we come the big question ....... Which of the Two interiors is the one that you

like. The Avionix, ((see Davs review) of the P-61), or the Eduard interior.

 

I have mixed feelings, at this time............ If funding permits, I may get both ...........   .

 

 

 

Be cool, ........

Greetings Dave,

 

 

 

..... I am thinking about the same.... The exterior, and the Wheel Wells look good ......

But, I was disappointed with the Eduard interior sets ......  ... and they did a smashing

job on the 1/4 scale model kits.... 

 

....  Avionix ....

I am hoping that they will upsize some of there Brassin stuff too...

Ditto re their Spitfire accessories esp the 'cigar' drop tank, but they do seem rather shy of 1/32 in this regard
