About product

Why belts in a cockpit

Seat belts are the first thing a viewer notices in an open cockpit. A kit either suggests them only with shallow relief on the seat or leaves them out altogether, and the space around the seat then looks empty. Textile belts solve that shortcoming differently from plastic: the fabric can be folded, draped over the edge of the seat and spread out so that the belts look set aside rather than arranged. It is exactly that casual shape that makes a cockpit convincing.

Which subject the set is aimed at

The set is listed for the Messerschmitt Bf 109E in 1:48 scale. The E version is the form from the beginning of the Second World War, recognizable among other things by the angular framing of the canopy glazing and by the square wingtips. The cockpit of this type is narrow and, once the canopy is closed, it is mainly the seat with its belts that stays visible. What exactly the set contains and in what order the elements are assembled is given in the manufacturer's instructions.

Building tips

  • move the elements with tweezers, as fingers easily crease and soil the fabric
  • dose the glue in a minute amount, as it creeps into the fabric and hardens in it
  • shape the belt before you glue it to the seat
  • set the belts in place before the fuselage is closed up, after that you will no longer reach the cockpit
  • do not paint over finished belts; any sheen can simply be knocked back with a flat coat

FAQ

A set of textile belts for the Bf 109E in 1:48 scale. The exact contents are itemized in the manufacturer's instructions. The model, paints and glue are not included in the delivery, unless stated otherwise.

With glue in a minute amount, applied with the tip of a piece of wire or a toothpick. Glue creeps into the fabric and once hardened it makes it rigid, so here less is definitely more.

While the cockpit is being built, that is before you close the fuselage up. Once the fuselage is glued you will no longer reach the seat.

Painting over them makes no sense, as textile elements come with their surface finished. If the sheen bothers you, a flat coat is enough to knock it back.
