Academy P-40B
by Keith Allott

Here's all the
pics of the Academy P-40. The promo pic inside the case is included.
The only thing to let me down
was the decal sheet which was printed off-centre. I didn't have
time/couldn't be bothered fixing it. It's only really noticeable
on the Port side main wheel anyway.
Other features I DID have time
for/could be bothered with:
New seat, belts, rear bulkhead,
headrest and a tiny bit of interior detailing.
Open canopy. This required me to file a little bit off the fuse
and I had to leave out the rear windows.
New flaps.
New pitot.
Gear doors were thinned down.
All vents, exhausts and cannon barrels were drilled out.
Elevators were cut and re-positioned.
I did all this one sunday afternoon
and didn't use any aftermarket bits. I'm a cheapskate.
