Responsibility details are not available.
A set of photo-etched metal parts in 1:72 scale from the Czech maker Brengun. It is not an aircraft kit, but an accessory intended for a model of the Morane-Saulnier MS 500/502 Criquet liaison and observation aircraft that you have already bought. The target kit is given directly in the name of this item. Photo-etched parts are made from thin sheet by etching, so they can capture thicknesses and shapes that cannot be cast in injection-molded plastic - typically instrument panels, harnesses, grilles and small sheet metal reinforcements. The contents of the sheet and the number of parts are given on the packaging.
The Morane-Saulnier MS 500 Criquet was a French liaison, observation and courier aircraft derived from the design of the German Fieseler Fi 156 Storch, whose production continued in France after the Second World War. The versions differed above all in their powerplant: the MS 500 took over the engine of the original subject, while the MS 502 received a radial engine of domestic manufacture, which is the most conspicuous difference on a model. The machine was notable for its extremely short takeoff and landing, slow flight and excellent visibility from the glazed cabin. The French Air Force used it for long years after the war in the liaison and observation role.
Cut the etched parts off the fret with a sharp scalpel on a hard surface, not with nippers. Make the bends over a metal ruler or in a bending tool; etched sheet can be bent only once, and repeated straightening tires it and the part cracks. They are attached with cyanoacrylate glue in a small amount applied with a pin - cyanoacrylate holds well on metal and does not flood the engraving. Degrease the metal before painting and use primer, otherwise the paint will chip during handling. It pays to paint the harnesses and instrument panels while they are still on the fret and to cut them off only at the end.
The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. The base kit, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
