Title: Hannover mania!
Post by: Checkers67 on July 16, 2012, 08:31:22 AM

 Yes, When it rains, it pours! On my first day here I lamented on the fact; where to find a1:48 scale Hannover CL.III kit. Today I can report, I have three! Two Eduards and one Koster. Shock has settled in now. Thanks to the site and Coyote Magic!
Steve :) :) :) ;)

Congratulations, Steve.  Isn't the Koster everything I said it was?  Are the wings warped on your Eduard kits?  Mine were.  That's why I ordered the Koster in the first place and so glad I did.
So, let's get one of those babies going, Steve.
Cheers,
Bud

So you should be half way through at least one then Steve - where's the build log??

Only joshing ;)
Congrats on on obtaining your new CL.III squadron!

Well! My squadron of Hannas is still sinking in. The Eduard wings are not twisted at all. I forgot what a nice kit it is. I think with some current upgradesthis kit should shine. The Koster kit is very comprehensive. This is my first vac kit! I just wish somebody made the Argus III engine in a modern way! Cuttting sprue on the Eduard kit. Some of the brass detail will be replace with some plastic. I need to order 1/32 five color lozgen.
Thank you all for the support! SJP 8)
