The wing is rather good, with well-detailed--even if a bit too flat--undercarriage wells, and a recessed heat exchanger vane. I had to rebuild the trim plate (on the left wing only). |
The navigation lights on the wing had the external clear coloured cover; one can choose to paint them (dark red, left; blue-green, right), but I have found that scratchbuilding clear parts and painting them with clear red and blue-green could give a more realistic effect. |

The landing light on the left wing could be rebuilt with clear plastic;
note that the transparent profile is not the rectangular panel engraved
on the wing, but it’s internal to it; it’s rounded on the upper part, and
squared on the lower part. To reproduce this detail I have:
|
Before joining the wing to the fuselage, we have to close with some filler
and plasticard the wing root air intakes; you have to add a plate simulating
a net filter about 2 mm after the inlet.
The air intakes were slightly reshaped with the addition of a small plasticard triangle on the upper lip; further reshaping must be done after joining to the fuselage. |
If one wants to cut the flaps to make them open, these drawings could be useful.
The interior color looks the light blue-green interior primer.
The Part photoetched sheet has pieces to make the flaps down.
