discussion Geoff’s Tamiya 1/48 Bristol Beaufighter Mk.VI

[Geoffers]

I didn’t realize how complex the Office was Geoff. Glad to know it goes together well thanks for the heads up.

Thanks Lee, yes the detail is pretty good for an older kit

HI Geoff this i s lookin good but whats that long pipe for in side ?

Cheers Chris

It’s a heating duct, it piped warm air from the engines to keep the crew warm at high altitude

Lovely looking cockpit. Worth using the PE for sure. Looks to have gone together in typical Tamiya fashion.

Yes it’s gone together very nicely. Considering this was first tooled in 1997 it shows how ahead of the rest Tamiya were back then

I was assuming that the second seat was a gunner, but I assumed wrong, I see. Navigator/Bomb Aimer? It looks nice and neat and well worth the extra PE
