About product

Eduard 1:48 Avro Lancaster B Mk.III Dambuster cockpit

A photo-etched set of brass sheet in 1:48 scale from the Czech brand Eduard. It is not a model of an airplane but an accessory for a plastic kit of the Lancaster already purchased. The name places it at the pilot's compartment, that is at the place that is well visible under the glazed cabin of a large bomber and where plastic parts usually offer only a simplified shape.

The real subject

The Lancaster had its cabin set high on the top of the fuselage and glazed so extensively that the interior is visible from most angles. A crew of seven worked in the long fuselage, divided by armored bulkheads. The machines of No. 617 Squadron, which in May 1943 attacked the German dams in the Ruhr with Barnes Wallis's bouncing bomb, are among the best-known Lancasters in history and also tend to be built most often with the access sections open.

Tips for working with photo-etched parts

Assemble and paint the interior before you glue the halves of the fuselage together. Separate the parts with a sharp scalpel on a hard surface, and never tear them out. Make the bends along the marked grooves and finish the fold against a steel rule. Apply super glue with a pin in tiny drops and wipe any excess away at once. Go over degreased sheet with primer, and only then with the covering paint.

Who the set is for

  • Modelers who want to see real detail under extensive glazing
  • More experienced builders used to working with small brass parts
  • Those interested in the famous operation of No. 617 Squadron in 1943
  • Builds in 1:48 scale with open or well visible interiors

FAQ

No. The package contains only photo-etched accessories. The plastic model of the Lancaster in 1:48 scale has to be obtained separately.

As early as possible. The parts of the pilot's compartment are fitted and painted before the halves of the fuselage are joined together.

A photo-etch bending tool is ideal. Without one, press a steel rule or a razor blade against the marked groove and fold the part over the edge.

Yes. Degreasing and a coat of primer are essential with photo-etched parts, otherwise paint does not hold on the smooth sheet.
