Quite often in my reviews, I look at a vacuform canopy and say "Nice... but not up to Squadron/Falcon standards", or else I look at a thick injected item and hope for these guys to come to the rescue. It''s easy to make do with kit canopies... until you look at replacements like these...

Thanks!

Long been a fan of their vacuum formed canopies, I've stocked up on then for years. They are really great when a kit canopy just won't do because the thickness is out of scale, in 1/72 that sticks out like a sore thumb. Used one for my 109 Down just for that reason.

D'oh!

Now I need to get the Squadron vacs for me B-29...

Hi Ollie

That was my reaction - along with Yeah! Now I don't have to sand every panel flat!

This lot arrived out of the blue this morning... suffice to say they nearly made me late for work!

All the best

Yes.

My B-29 is an already built kit given to me, I'll rebuild it.

Can't wait to start it!

Thanks Rowan, I hadn't realised the B-29 kit had inaccurate transparancies, looks like I'll be getting this too :-)

Hi Mal

I remember good old Scale Models pointing out the problem with the B-29 canopy back in the '70s - correcting it was a job I wasn't looking forward to... if I ever finally managed to build the kit - it's probably been on the shelf for 15 years!

What surprised me was the B-25 canopies - I hadn't heard of an accuracy problem with this one...

I've got a couple of Mitchells sat there begging to be built - I'm running out of excuses...

All the best

Rowan
