About product

Eduard P-40B landing flaps 1:48 (photo-etched flaps)

This is a photo-etched detail set from the manufacturer Eduard in 1:48 scale for a faithful rendition of the landing flaps of the Curtiss P-40B fighter. It is not a model and not a kit but an accessory replacing the plastic flaps with fine photo-etched parts, which can be shown in the lowered position with their inner structure suggested. The exact contents follow the instructions in the package.

The real subject

The Curtiss P-40 was an American fighter of the start of the Second World War, driven by a V12 engine and famous among other things from the service of the volunteer group the Flying Tigers. The early P-40B version was among the first production machines of this line. Lowered landing flaps are a favorite way of giving a parked model a lively look.

Usage tips

The original flaps are cut out of the plastic according to the instructions and replaced with the photo-etched parts. Those are cut from the fret, formed and glued with super glue. We recommend careful fitting against the underside of the wing and patience in bracing the parts.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers of American fighters of the Second World War in 1:48 scale
  • Anyone after flaps in a faithful lowered position
  • Builders of a parked model with open wing elements
  • More advanced modelers working with photo-etch

This is a detail accessory, not a model of an airplane. The base kit and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

They let you show the landing flaps of the P-40B in a faithful lowered position, with the inner structure suggested as well, which a plastic part usually does not have.

No, it is a detail accessory. The set holds only the photo-etched flaps for sharpening an existing P-40B kit in 1:48 scale, not the aircraft.

It calls for cutting the original flaps out and patient fitting of the photo-etched parts, glued with super glue. It suits more experienced modelers better.
