About product

A wooden structure and a flat windscreen

Wood gave this British twin the reputation of being the fastest aircraft that could be built in a furniture workshop. The combat version FB Mk.VI traded the glazed nose of the bomber form for a solid nose with gun barrels and received a flat armored windscreen, so its cockpit looks different from that of the reconnaissance and bomber machines. It is this version that is associated with precise strikes from low level against individual buildings, where what counted was that the crew arrived low, fast and without warning. Besides bombs the version could carry unguided rockets under the wing, so it was at the same time an unpleasant opponent for ships and trains.

When the mask is on one side only

This item covers the masking of the glazing from the outside only, and that has a direct consequence for the sequence of the build. The inner face of the frames stays in the color of the transparent part, so looking into the cockpit, light plastic shows through the glass. The answer is easy, it just has to be thought of in advance: go over the frames on the inside with a fine brush in the interior shade before the part is glued to the fuselage, or cut the inner shapes out of ordinary masking tape using the outer ones as a template. The second route takes a quarter of an hour and rewards you by making the frame look like a full-fledged piece of structure from outside as well as from inside.

FAQ

The masks in this item are cut for the outer side. On this version the cockpit has a smaller area of glass than on the bomber form, so the inner frames can be managed with a brush. Anyone who wants the inner face perfect can trace the shapes from the outer ones.

It has no glazed nose. The nose is solid and carries gun barrels, the windscreen is flat and armored. The shape of the canopy therefore differs from the reconnaissance and bomber machines of the same type.

There is not. The contents are masking material and a decal sheet, but no plastic parts.

From laminated wood with a plywood skin. That structure saved strategic metals, made it possible to bring furniture workshops in and at the same time gave the machine a very smooth surface.
