About product

F-8 Crusader ejection seat with belts 1:72 (Quickboost)

This resin set from Quickboost, made by the Czech company Aires, brings a faithfully cast ejection seat with seat belts indicated for a model of the American Vought F-8 Crusader carrier-based fighter in 1:72 scale. It is not an airplane model but a detail accessory for more experienced modelers, replacing the coarser plastic seat with a sharp casting with a richer cockpit structure.

The real subject

The Vought F-8 Crusader was an American carrier-based supersonic fighter of the Cold War era, characterized by its variable-incidence wing, which made takeoff and landing on an aircraft carrier deck easier. It was used during the Vietnam War in both the fighter and the reconnaissance role. The cockpit with its ejection seat is one of the clearly visible places on a model.

Tips for working with resin

First wash the casting in lukewarm soapy water to remove any release residue. Cut off the casting block with a saw and sand the cut face with respiratory protection. Bond the seat with super glue (cyanoacrylate), not with plastic cement. Pick out the cast belts with shades and a wash; dry-fit the part before closing up the cockpit.

Who the set is for

  • More experienced modelers who want to raise the accuracy of the cockpit
  • Builders for whom the simplified plastic seat is not enough
  • Anyone interested in working with resin and fine castings
  • Competition modelers and collectors

The set is supplied as a resin part, unassembled and unpainted. It is not an airplane model but an accessory for a plastic kit. Glue, paints and the base kit are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Yes, the seat belts are indicated in the casting itself, so all you need to do is pick them out in color and accentuate them with a wash.

Resin. It is bonded with super glue (cyanoacrylate), not with ordinary plastic cement.

Working with resin takes experience, so we recommend the set more to advanced modelers.
