Model Airplane International 08 2007


The difference between these two two-seat sub-types was that the 2m had straight wooden wings whereas the 2m3 had metal wings that were swept back at an angle of 15 degrees. Along with the addition of the 11-2 straight wings Eduard have also added a bit of spice via the inclusion of a pre-painted photo-etched fret, canopy masks and a fabulous new decal sheet covering no fewer than five options. The original kit parts looked pretty impressive but with the addition of the coloured etched set the detail is pushed up quite a few notches, especially in the cockpit area where things like the etched instrument panel and coloured belts really improve the final look. But what of the transplanting of the wings, could this Frankenstein type surgery really work? Well it does but not totally painlessly, I may add.
