David R Lentz, Columbus, Ohio, USA Well, Tim, you certainly made an excellent job of it. Appropriately subtle in application, yet eminently effective in appearance. Perhaps you next might create an airborne diorama dramatising the USMC aviator Lt. “Bob” Klingman on high-altitude patrol in his Chance Vought F4U-1D Corsair Fighter (Tamiya also offers the perfect kit for that part of the job!), in the struggle to intercept at very high altitude a Mitsubishi Ki-46 Imperial Japanese Army Type 100 twin-engine command reconnaissance aircraft, Allied brevity code name “Dinah.” Because all six of the bent-winged warbird’s M2 Browning .50-caliber machine guns had frozen for the bitter cold of high altitude, he resorted to using just the propeller of his aircraft to buzz-saw off the rudder of his dodgy enemy, abruptly sending the nosy sod out of control, to plunge into the roiling seas just off the coast of his island base (sources: “Marine Corps pilot Robert ‘Bob’ Klingman took down enemy using his propeller”, By Team Mighty [We Are The Mighty, Military News posted Wednesday, 8 February, 2023, 7:16 a.m. PST]; Wikipedia: Mitsubishi Ki-46 IJA Type 100 twin-engine scout aircraft).

What does I mean?

Beautiful. The first aircraft i worked on as an aircraft tech. back in the day.😊

Teacher’s don’t want to teach anymore because the ill discipline children at the cost of children who do want to learn that’s why they are leaving in droves

16:30 just cut this snake in 2-3 smaller pieces and then adjust em on surface. this really helps with big decals. in general, when you have L, cut it to I and _ its much easier to put em back together(I + _ = L) than to struggle with one piece

I flew this aircraft as part of my National Service pilot training 1951-1953, moving on from single engine (Chipmunks) to Airspeed Oxfords for asymetrc flying. We flew them solo (RAF Dalcross. Inverness) in preparation for our conversion to Meteors (which I failed). My memory was that in no circumcstanaces were we to get into a spin, as this aircraft could not recover. The escape hatch was in the roof towards the rear of the fuselage. You were supposed to get out of you seat and climb to the back with the aid of a rope along the ceiling. In short, pretty well zero chance! I survived and will shortly reach my 91st birthday.

This is the nicest build of this kit I've seen and going to go with you and Kotare on this one that the bluish code letters are probably correct.

Lovely job. Very helpful. Just started my kit.

Proceeds to Hannants….Clicks “Add to cart”….and grins!

It was great to meet you and Jason, Tim. Congratulations on your award!

isopropyl alcohol fuel Messerschmitt Bf-109 ,Isopropyl alcohol produces a yellow flame ,ie the yellow you see

Beautiful work , I am sure Airfix will bring out a Costal Command Liberator sooner or later .

That music ...SO Annoying - Detracts from what you are doing!

Excellent build you made doing the came look easy

Hello mr. Tim!awesome job done building that ww2icon.also you have done a decent paintjob.your work is a shiny beacon in the modelling world.i really was entertained a lot.i like your narration too.i usually am building Tanks after ww2.with best regards and sticky greetings from Brandenburg/germany.your fellow modellmate.christian

Hello mr. T!thats nice content.a great job you did.its an outstanding piece of art you created.with best regards and sticky greetings from Brandenburg/germany.your fellow modellmate.christian

Where did you get the clips you use to hold the fuselage together while it dries?

Lovely result. You got the navigation light the wrong way round though

Well done what a fantastic build. Great job you done with it I’m looking forward to starting my Brian Lane version if mine comes out a quarter as good as that I will have done well. This is my first video of yours I seen and enjoyed is so now I’m following i have a look at your others

Sorry. I was really interested in this video but had to stop watching it because of the really irritating background noise. Is there a version somewhere without the "music"?

How did you make the instrument panel??

Stukas you can shove matey but a cracking job all the same. I guess when you are dealing with hot plastic cooling and ever more (rightfully) discerning modellers nothing will ever be perfect. I am slowly re warming to Airfix Tim. I suspect that their idea of using wing spars rather than simple plug ins does complicate things slightl, but it should produce more accurate geometry. Nice job with the weathering. Really nice. Spent time in't desert myself and nothing stays intact for long. Interested to know pound for pound just how much sand we ate😂. Something I read recently (regarding the career of the Hurricane) touched on how badly abraded their canopies became in the sand pit, while the German canopies were of an apparently higher quality. One of my great aunts worked hand polishing gun turret Perspex (said they started quite rough) and another was machine gunned on her bike in rural Brum by a 109. Said she saw the arse holes face as he rolled out for another go....clear canopies then😳. Great job. If ever you need references for Army Air corps subject, give me a shout.

Great build of a nicely detailed kit and added extras.. I haven't got this kit in the stash so can't form an opinion about it, but judging by your build, it seems to have the same good and bad sides as most of the new Airfix kits. I recently bought the OLD Airfix Stuka in 1/48 scale and it will no doubt be a less complicated build than this one, when I get round to it. I enjoyed seeing your build and the cockpit paint work shown is very useful, so thanks for that. Top effort and a beautiful model, I always like a desert scheme, well done.. :)

Hi matey. Holy thread resurrection etc😂. I have the original gavia kit with a shit ton of "correction" and "PE" parts to help. Someone mentioned the SD version not carrying a rear gun but by all accounts it went further than that Tim. The rear was pretty much gutted with a bench seat you could lift to stow kit, and a ply floor. The radio was moved as well but so little info is about and less still images of the Tempsford aircraft. This work was local mods so as likely differed anyway. Another thing people jump up and down about is the Lysander's automatic slat and flap arrangement that deploys automatically below certain air speeds. Useful if you know about it, less so if you can't get the bloody thing to land😬. Apparently they had their own technique. Working with its contemporary of sorts, the DH Beaver, it's interesting to note just how heavy the Lizzie was...blimey. The point about the slats is that invariably they are always deployed on the ground and look a sod to model, but, it is not uncommon for crews to simply push the things back in and I have seen them on the deck with them in so.... the wings mounts look a sod and I have noted the strut position holes need moving. With all that fuel behind you....hells bells. This said the Bell 47 probably would get into service these days with 48 gal of AVGAS hovering above a red hot turbocharger. A belting job of a controversial but much loved type. Nice one....in arrears😂

1:35 My grandfather bought this kit, last one he ever did, it showed up on his doorstep the day of his funeral. That's how I got back into the hobby, figured I would build it in his memory

Just come across your channel and I must say what a great build. Also subscribed to your channel, and will be checking out more vids

An excellent build. It is comforting for those of us just starting out to realise that the experts have annoying fit issues as well sometimes. Happy Easter.

Thanks for the video, and your really nice build. No silver/metallic chipping on prop; it's a wooden blade!

What jig is that at 15:18 ?

Thats a Luftwaffe Aircraft plane of Hitler's Luftwaffe & Goring too. The Stuka was shot down in great numbers Swastika on the tail. Bad plane.

🛩️🛩️🛩️🛩️🖖🤝🙏😮😮

The wing fit is better if you remove all paint from mating surfaces, eg the spar and inside surfaces. Even one thin coat of paint can throw the fit out. I had to sand off all the paint from the mating surfaces and the inside surfaces from my B-1 kit.

I appreciate you showing the troubles with the wing fitment. We micro engineers can fix issues, but hopefully manufacturers watch builders videos and take note. Very nice finish!

Nice I enjoyed building this kit

Great looking finish. I love the Camo paint job. The seats were also a nice touch.

Excellent build son 👏

You've got yourself a nice looking stuka there mate 😉👍

Your build video is excellent. Thank you. On the other hand, your background music is annoying.

real Art.

Terrific build Tim! Always enjoy your work.

It's great to see another video build Tim. Really enjoyed watching and looking forward to seeing more.

Cool weathering effects. 🛩

Brilliant mate! That's a lovely looking Stuka.......

👌👍

Great weathering work on this. Thanks for sharing your hard work

Thanks for sharing. I cant recomend the AK masking putty enough for doing this kind of spray work. Also, cutting out the shapes of the mask from paper then using the masking putty to hold that onto the model gets you a beautifully precise but only slightly soft edge camo.

Like a Trop 109, hurricane et Al. ❤ Never built a tamiya aircraft so look forward to this.

Hi Tim, I hope you are keeping well and in good spirits. Really missing your channel content. I'm sure that I speak for many others too . Hopefully this positive comment will help to encourage you to start more building and recording soon. Take care Tim cheers pal

i do realy love this airplain becous of the inerframes and the outher biiiiiiig wings :) it is a remarkebal Model and airplain ! i am build rigth now the anon mk I 1:48 but the 1:72 is somting i wana to.
