Looks really nice

It does look great. Depending on ones financial situation it would make a great start for a Diorama!

Hi all. Mine arrived the other day, absolutely awesome kit. Every plank and nailhead is replicated, even on the inside. It is made from plywood and MDF, with clear sheet for the window glass and PE for the door hinges and interior light shades. All the parts are lazer cut, just a few small nubs to cut to release them from the sheets, just like PE frets but wood. The insructions are clear and easy to follow. Will post pics later this week ( on vacation for a week from Wednesday - getting married! ) Actually, will probably start a new thread on this kit. Regards, Pete in RI

Bon Voyage on your nuptials. Thanks for the heads up on the kit. I hope they do 1/48 and 1/72 scale versions as well.

Thank you all for your kind words. I am now a very happily married old man! lol. Yesterday went perfect, the justice was 2 hours late, and it started raining just as we finished the service! ( was outside in our garden) So a mad dash to get the electronics and chairs inside. My son and his wife set us up with a Zoom call on a laptop so family in England could join in. Great day :D Regards, Pete in RI

No problem Pete and congratulations. I just thought that this looked like a great product by our friends at Aviattic.

It is Juan. The parts are laser cut, just small attachment points to the frames which are easily cut through. There is detail on both sides of the parts, the door hinges are PE, as are the inside light shades. The instructions are well printed on quality paper in colour and are easy to follow.

The main base is 20"x 15 3/4", this is a large kit that provides a very nice detailed aircraft display environment.

That is one Awesome Hanger Kit Pete! I am looking forward to seeing it built with an aircraft sitting in front 8)

Just to keep this in perspective, this product's listed price is 185 pounds ( $US 241/ $CA 317/ $A 335) plus shipping costs.
If there's going to be a photo feast of the parts, prospective buyers need to know a price too.

Neither my price range nor cup of tea, but thanks for sharing and the effort of taking pictures. :)
-
True Dave, it is pricey but there has been a heck of a lot of research and time gone into producing this kit and making it as good as possible. It is also BIG! lol. Seriously though, the price is in the same ballpark as we all paid for WNW's kits so it's really not that bad. Regards, Pete in RI.

I think I have FINALLY sorted out this picture posting thing. ( ok, so I am a realllly slow learner) I signed up for Imgur hosting and they have a forums button that makes it easy enough even for me to use.
