Hello guys, this Eduard's limited edition double kit is my contribution to this fun group build. Let's take off with the content of the box. The boxart and instruction manual.  Thirteen different stickerings are provided!  The decal sheets look great.  Not less than three wing sections come with it!  The canopies.  Superb pilot figure, coloured pe instruments panel etc.  Razor sharp detail on a lot of parts.    |

This is going to be awesome and I am really looking forward to it  . If I remember rightly, there are two kits in that box. You have to pay attention to the instructions as these will show you, which wing assembly matches which decal option. It sounds complicated, but Eduard have got this seriously well worked out. Beware of the Propeller blades, there are 3 or 4 to choose from, and again these match the decal options  You will also notice the lack of connection points on the wings and the fuselage. Don't worry, the Eduard engineering is absolutely spot on and you don't need them . |

Thank you for this useful info on the kits Paul. I build two planes, simultaniously or one after the other. I'll do my stinking best on them.

Before I forget, Eduard have one thing in the cockpit wrong. The fuel line that runs past the pilot should be mounted on the starboard cockpit wall, and not fixed to the cockpit floor . Here's some pictures for you: For Discussion Purposes OnlyNote the red amrkings   This is a cut down shot from Oliver Peissl  |

Well guys, I've decided to build these two birdies one after the other to avoid mistakes, I know myself. My first impression looking at the kit parts is that they are extremely well detailed, the pe parts are a tad fiddly but with patience and a lot of f... words it's do-able. You know pe is not my best friend and it will never be. 🥴 But I'll do my über best as I got this limited edition kits as a present from my dear modelling friends.  |
