Title: RAF BE.2 E 1/72 Pegasus
Post by: Tim Mixon on October 30, 2022, 06:26:47 AM: OOB build with Blue Rider home defense night fighter decals and Eduard photo etch set. (Guess it’s not OOB then!) lol.

Very nice indeed! You are a modeler after my own heart building short run and vac kits.

Ciao

Me too. I built one of these based on the Czechmaster resin kit (posted here last April). Somewhere in storage I have 1/2-finished 1/72 F.E.2c in night-fighting livery that needs resurrecting.

Nice build, Tim. We need to keep bringing these rare birds to light.

Yes. I think it’s supposed to be representing the crew of this “deadly” aircraft! Lol

Post by: lone modeller on November 05, 2022, 05:45:51 AM: Excellent model of one of the lesser known types. The markings are very interesting and different.

I never cease to wonder why the designers of the BE2 types did not change the positions of the pilot and observer during the development of the different types. Can anyone explain why?
