Dassault Etendard IVM - completed
1
July 22, 2018Sometimes is less enough: cockpit 1:1 OOB except yellow/black thread.2
July 22, 2018The kit lacks two parts as inside covers for the "gun channels". You need 2 pieces of diagonal cut plastic tube and 5 minutes.3
July 22, 2018On more puzzle kit! Also in this time (AS 365 Pedro) the fuselage consists of 2 dozen (!!!) parts.4
July 26, 2018I highly recommend to attaching the both small fins to the tail BEFORE attaching the tail to the fuselage.5
July 26, 2018I left the clear part GP4 because this “produce” no flush windows. I intend to make each window after airbrushing from thin clear material.6
July 26, 2018I recommend to replace the etched parts with thin plastic (better and cleaner fit on the stabilizers). I replaced further the plastic pins with a combination of brass tube and brass rod (better and stronger fit).7
July 26, 2018Each position light will be attached after coloring and after airbrushing.8
August 25, 2018A lot of time was needed to fit the wing tips to the middle section (different thickness).9

August 27, 2018New research results: detacheable camera pod carried only in version P. Because this is an M I had to rip of this part. 🙁11
August 27, 2018Fortunately this worked without any major damage.12
August 27, 2018Another instruction mistake by Kittyhawk: the fins were mounted obviously only on the Super Etendard. I did not find any picture of my plane showing these fins. More ripping. Grumble. 🙁13
