1:48 P-51B Mustang Birdcage canopy ESSENTIAL is a bundle of Eduard accessory sets from the Big Sin line for a model of the early Mustang version with the framed canopy.
Responsibility details are not available.
Big Sin is Eduard's designation for a bundle made up of several accessory sets for a single type. The qualifier ESSENTIAL distinguishes the basic scope of the bundle from the richer bundles that the brand runs under the designation ADVANCED; both levels exist side by side, so you can choose according to how far you want to take the detailing. The set belongs to a model of the P-51B in 1:48 scale; the aircraft itself is not part of it.
The letter B denotes the first production version of the Mustang with the British Merlin engine built under license by Packard. It was precisely the change of powerplant that turned what had been an average reconnaissance and attack machine into a fighter that could deal with an opponent at high altitude. Early examples kept the raised fuselage spine and the framed canopy, which in modeling slang is called a birdcage. The escort missions over Germany in the winter and spring of 1944 were flown largely by these machines.
The accessories call for surgery on the plastic - some of the original parts are cut away, and that is why the fit is tried dry before any glue comes into play. Lay the small components out in a shallow dish so that they are not lost, and work over a light surface. Leave the clear parts until the end of the build, so that they are not scratched.
This is an accessory set, not a finished or a part-built aircraft.
