FIAT C.R.42 ”Falco”
Hi all!
Andrew that was a really fast build!
Your Falco is very nice, good job!
I’ll build exactly the same kit as Andrew’s, just another boxing!

Italeris excellent little “Falcon”, but I will build it as a Swedish J.11 fighter!
This is the content of the roomy box;

Not many parts, but what’s there’s of good quality!
I will use an etched set from Eduard as the cockpit is really the only part of the kit lacking in detail!

All the Swedish decals will be from Flying Colors.

With this the construction can start;

The engine was painted with Alclad steel!
