About product

HGW fabric seat belts Spitfire late version Q type (1:48)

A set of fabric seat belts for the cockpit. It is not an aircraft model but a premium aftermarket accessory that raises the realism of the interior. The straps are printed on thin microfabric with a faithful pattern and completed by photo-etched metal buckles. Thanks to the fabric base they can be bent naturally, allowed to sag and left to blend with the seat, which neither plastic nor purely photo-etched belts allow.

The real subject

The Supermarine Spitfire was a British fighter, one of the icons of the Second World War. The late versions had a revised cockpit and equipment; the designation Q type refers to the particular type of belt restraint system used in these machines.

Usage tips

Separate the parts from the sheet carefully, break the metal buckles off the photo-etched fret and clean them up. The fabric straps can be shaped with the fingers or with tweezers into the sag you want; cyanoacrylate glue in a small amount proves itself for fixing them and joining them to the buckles. It is best to assemble and fit the belts before the fuselage is closed up, while the cockpit is easy to reach.

Who it is for

  • Builders of late versions of the Spitfire in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers who want a realistic cockpit
  • More advanced detailers

This is an accessory for detailing the cockpit; the aircraft model itself, glue and paints are not included in the package.

FAQ

No. It is a set of fabric seat belts for the cockpit, that is an accessory for raising the level of detail, not an aircraft kit.

The fabric base lets the straps be bent and allowed to sag naturally, so the result reads more realistically than stiff plastic or purely photo-etched belts.

A sharp knife or scissors to separate the parts, tweezers for shaping and a small amount of cyanoacrylate glue to join the straps to the metal buckles.
