This short-run injection-molded kit in 1:48 scale captures the Italian racing seaplane Piaggio-Pegna P.c.7 of the late 1920s. The kit from the manufacturer AMP is laid out as a multimedia package: the injection-molded plastic is complemented by a clear part, photo-etched parts, masking stencils and decals. The model is intended for collectors of racing aircraft of the golden age of air racing and for anyone interested in technical curiosities.
The P.c.7 was an experimental Italian racing seaplane designed by Giovanni Pegna for the 1929 Schneider Trophy. It stood out for an exceptionally unconventional concept: instead of classic floats it had a fuselage that sat on the water, and it was to take off on hydrofoils, with a marine propeller driving it through the water and only then the air propeller starting to turn. The machine was highly ambitious for its day and technically ahead of what the era could manage.
With a short-run kit we recommend a dry fit and careful clean-up of the parts. Assemble and paint the cockpit interior and the engine section in advance. Glue the photo-etched parts with super glue and the clear part with cement for canopies; the masks supplied make painting the glazing easier. Glossy racing finishes come out on a smooth base applied with an airbrush, and the decals should be left to dry on a gloss coat.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
