Bristol F2B Post War from WNW

[Thumbs up]

Is there much difference between this version and the war version???

Thumbs, have a look at WnW's Website:  http://www.wingnutwings.com/ww/product?productid=3096 and here http://www.wingnutwings.com/ww/product?productid=3087. you can see that at least one of those post war versions had a different tailplane. Tough the main difference will be the paint schemes, which will be NOT only PC10 and12!

I wish they gave an option with Hispano Suiza - there are so many Polish subjects!

Post war modifications were numerous and included modified engine cowlings and radiator slats for improved cooling, longer exhaust manifolds, an auxiliary "tropical" radiator, modified instrument board and a larger balanced rudder. Some very late serving aircraft could also be found with variable pitch propellers, a larger horizontal tailplane and leading edge slats on the top wings.
WNW says that they include these modifications in their new model.
I will not resist to this version. Actually I modified the airfix model to the post war version, since this latter was featured in the "Storia dell'Aviazione encyclopedy", the weekly booklets that formed an entire generation of italian modelers: this encyclopedia featured Airfix and Revell models as "give-away" each third weekly installment...

I'll second that.

It is interesting that we have known about the two post-war aircraft for over a year now and that since these are development of existing kits, I am surprised they were held back this long.  Though I realize that WNW had mentioned that the AEG had development issues that delayed its release.

I wonder what's cooking besides the Camel?

Not too sure on the 1920s brisfit, but I'd like to get the post-war ninack. cool painting though.
 I also saw the "special" on the pair of Fe2bs + book is already sold out. Does that mean the Fee is close to extinction, I wonder?

Doubt it.  The only thing one can really infer is the monograph on the Fe.2 is now out of stock at WNW.  WNW was likely trying to unload excess monographs on the Fee while selling a kit that may not be selling like some of the others.

Sure it's been posted somewhere already, but a link to Hyperscale where they received an update from Wingnuts:

I haven't started my early Brisfit yet either!
