About product

SIAT 223 Flamingo 1:48 (PM Model)

A kit of the SIAT 223 Flamingo light trainer in 1:48 scale from the Turkish maker PM Model. It is an injection-molded plastic model in gray plastic with clear parts and a decal sheet. The tool dates from the 1980s, has a lower part count and serves well as an approachable build for less experienced modelers. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package.

The real subject

The SIAT 223 Flamingo is a West German light trainer of the 1960s, designed as a conventional low-wing monoplane with fixed tricycle landing gear. It came about in response to the demand for a standard training machine and was used for basic and advanced pilot training. It was also built under license and served with civil and military operators alike.

Building and painting tips

On an older tool, clean up the flash and the burrs, dry-fit the parts carefully and fill the joints. Glue with thin cement for plastic, use a primer and apply the paint with an airbrush. A small airplane with a large glazed cockpit rewards careful masking and polishing of the clear parts. Gloss varnish before the decals, a matte overcoat at the end.

Who the model is for

  • For collectors of trainers and civil aircraft in 1:48
  • For modelers who will appreciate a less usual subject
  • For beginners and advanced modelers looking for a quicker build

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
