1/48 Special hobby Fokker B.II 03.61
« on: February 20, 2019, 01:21:05 AM »
Good day.
I will try to build Fokker number 03.61.
Having carefully read the build logs on this machine from the net, understood that the device is not simple.
And nevertheless ...
I have a windsock book on early Fokkers and the issue of the "Revi"magazine (65) .
A photos from the network.
I understood that the fuselage needs to be changed in such a way that it ends in a cone (not a beaver tail as on 03.91)
I realized that i need to make new stabiliяers (those that are not suitable for a particular aircraft in the kit).
I understood that it was necessary to repair the cutout shape on the upper center section.
Thanks.

Looks as though this will be an interesting build. Nice to see an early war aircraft being built.

Excellent choice, Pustota!  Seems we have similar taste.  I have this one in the stash and will be following closely.
Cheers,
Bud

I am looking forward to this one. A kit that is not modeled enough in any scale!
