CARF Spitfire

[paul f16]

Loads of detail , rivets and panels etc, looks really nice.

Whats the retract fixing like , is it a bit delicate ? All the gear looks spot on , should be a real beauty when shes finished.

It's not the strongest of mounts but there's no scope to beef it up either, so all the landings will have to be greasers. Bin bag at the ready

[paul f16]

I am sure you will be fine

[paul f16]

I had a good look at the undercarriage mounts on the Mustang and they are really solid , in fact may be too strong. Get a landing wrong with these and the wing is in half, i will probably do what Weeksy does and fit them with small screws and hopefully they will pull out first.
Have you got all the paint for it now,

Here are two links to where i got my cockpit from www.propagteam.cz and www.aerocockpit.com hope this helps

[deedubs]

Haven't got any paint yet some of it isn't in stock. He's due another delivery from the States in the new year

[deedubs]

Done a bit more to the Spit. I had to make all of the bulkheads and started painting all of the cockpit parts. Exhaust canister will be internal so will need to lag it well

If you have any problems with the header, Motors and Rotors sorted mine , brilliant.

cockpit just about done

The detail in the cockpit alone is a work of art, keep the pics coming for us mere mortals.

He is lucky there is not so much detail in the Spits cockpit not like my P51
