About product

Aires / Quickboost air intake Avia S-199 / CS-199 – 1:72

A resin replacement air intake from Quickboost (the Aires brand) for the plastic model of the Czechoslovak Avia S-199 fighter (and of the two-seat trainer version CS-199) in 1:72 scale. It is not a model of an aircraft but a detail accessory that replaces the intake from the boxed kit with a more accurate casting of a more faithful shape.

The real subject

The Avia S-199 was a postwar Czechoslovak fighter that came about by combining the airframe of the Messerschmitt Bf 109 with the available Junkers Jumo engine. Because of that combination it had idiosyncratic flying qualities and the nickname Mezek, meaning mule. The CS-199 version was a two-seat trainer. The characteristic shape of the engine air intake is one of the recognition details that a resin replacement makes more accurate.

Fitting and tips

  • Wash the mold release agent off the part so that the paint adheres better
  • Separate the casting carefully from the casting block and sand the surface flat
  • Bond with super glue (cyanoacrylate) – cement for plastic does not hold on resin
  • Protect your airways when sanding resin (a respirator, extraction)

Who the accessory is for

For modelers building the plastic model of the Avia S-199 or CS-199 in 1:72 scale who want a more faithful air intake. Experience in working with resin is assumed.

The accessory does not contain the complete model, nor glue or paints. Intended for use with a separately purchased plastic model of the Avia S-199 / CS-199 in 1:72 scale.
