1:48 North American P-51D-20 Mustang Weekend is a photo-etched detail set from Eduard for the Mustang kit in 1:48 scale in the simpler Weekend edition. It is not an aircraft model but an accessory for the build.
Responsibility details are not available.
A set of photo-etched parts in thin metal sheet that completes the Mustang kit in 1:48 scale. The word Weekend in the name refers to the simplified edition of the kit, which has no photo-etched parts in the box, so this accessory comes into its own there most of all. The package holds the photo-etched fret only; the aircraft model is not part of it. The maker is the Czech firm Eduard.
The P-51D is the late variant of the Mustang fighter with a powerplant derived from the Merlin engine, with a teardrop canopy and a cut-down rear fuselage. It is precisely the cut-down spine and the all-round glazing that mean the cockpit is visible from every side and the interior cannot be hidden on a finished model. The D-20 designation belongs to a production block within the D series; the individual blocks differed in small details of armament and equipment.
Separate the parts with a scalpel on a hard surface and degrease them before gluing. Make the bends in a modeling bender or between two razor blades. They are glued with cyanoacrylate glue applied with a pin in the smallest possible amount. Cut away the plastic bosses where a photo-etched part is to go and level the surface. On the Mustang it pays to finish the cockpit before the fuselage is glued together and to fit the teardrop canopy at the very end so that it does not get dirty.
The accessory set is supplied without a kit, glue or paints.
