1/72 Morane Saulnier 'P'
« on: February 06, 2021, 09:42:55 AM »
This is the Joystick vac kit, which I think is still available through Hannant's. Very straightforward build, no issues, plenty of room in the cockpit to fill with some plausible jiggery. Details supplied from Roden kit leftovers and the spares box.

Cheers
Herb

Love it! Perfectly executed. I've never seen a 'P' modelled before.

Lovely Model of a unique aircraft! Your work is exceptional! I wish this was available in 1/32nd for My Lafeyette squadron collection but may have to look into this smaller version!

The MS P and BB are on top of my wishlist, so it is a pleasure to see a P modelled. You caught her elegant lines perfectly!

Very well built! It's nice to see a lesser known type, and in 1/72 scale.

Wonderful job!  Thanks for posting.  I have one of these also.  Someday when I get the nerve I will build it.

Nice to see a real scale model here, and of a lesser known type. The finish and rigging are excellent: I'll bet those cabane struts were a bit of a fiddle to get right.

Herb,

Very cool build!  The first P I recall I've seen built.  I will now have to go through my tub of vacs to make sure I have this kit.  Nice model.
