Hi all

I am after some assistance to build the 1/48 Hasegawa BF109E-1 kit. The kit is the E-3 with resin plugs to fill the underwing canon bulges so they can be removed. Now I was reading a couple of build articles on this kit and they advised that the E-1 should have access panels for the MG17s under the wing but they didn't clearly define or show where these are and what they look like. Can anyone help with an image of the underwing panelling of the BF109E-1?

Thanks
Wiz

PS: If there are any other inaccuracies in this kit, please do not tell me!
I just want to build this now and anyone who will see it will be hard pushed to name it as a Messerschmitt BF109, little chance of picking it's an E and absolutely no chance of an E-1...

Wizard,

Hope this helps - inset shows the u/s of the E-1 wing - From Aero Detail 1-Messerschmitt Bf109E
