Ahhh! Yes, absolutely. No monocoque, stressed skin, construction for the venerable Hurricane

I've seen pictures of some SAAF Hurricanes out in the desert on which the fabric covering the fuselage is distinctly flabby!

If I did 1/48 it sounds like I should build it! Thanks for the review.I would say that invasion stripes are very easy to mask using normal masking materials rather than pre-cut masks so their absence shouldn't really put anybody off.

Cheers

Yep, I get what you mean, but eduard limited editions should include more extras if you get what I mean. Nevertheless, it's a fantastic kit.

Hmm 'cause nobody else makes models of Spitfires...

I might ask are they only interested in aircraft that have seen Czech service?

I would love that they did more British aircraft but fear they are to into German and Soviet types.

I really want a Me 262 in 1:48 by eduard.

Those photos are rather small John.

There are a few things I could find myself suggesting to them as well.

This was eduard Support's reply to my suggestion:

thank you for your email. We are glad you enjoy our kits. The Me262 is in our future plans, but not in the nearest future. So still some time to wait

Nice for you to get a reply lol I've heard nothing but yours was about a popular plane mine wasn't

[Guest]

Good review, why can't they do a kit of the hurricane of this sort of detail ?

It's a great review and makes me want one. I have to agree with Alan though, I'm much more of a Hurricane fan and there's not the diversity of options for us.

Thanks mate. This is still readily available on eBay, but it is running out. If you want to get one, you have to better get it quick. The Italeri Hurricane kit is the best around, so if you want to build a 48 scale hurricane, build the Italeri one as it is fantastic.
