Nicely done so far!

Quick recovery Charles and I know what you mean about vanishing parts Paul. Probably 90% of my builds have something missing, usually a part that is hidden but sometimes I have to scratch build.

Stuka's looking great, Paul. Don't wanna hi-jack your thread, but thanks for the warm words. Recovery is going to take awhile.

Charles

No problems, happy to do it!

A question: did the stukas in Russia in 1941 have the "Jericho trumpets" attached?

 

[Wurger]

Not all Paul. There were Stukas with these small props dismounted. However the "device" was still attached.

 

[meatloaf109]

Ah, thank you!
I was checking my resources and could not find a definite answer. Photos can be mislabeled, and the one that I have that shows StG2 aircraft in Russia is from the rear 3/4 view. Then there was another that has the sirens on, but it is the wrong insignia for StG2.

 

[meatloaf109]

Some progress..
Maybe paint this weekend!

 

[fubar57]

Do you have a specific date Paul. Got some 87b books to look through.

Geo

EDIT:Emailed you two pix. While I could find plenty of B-2s with or without sirens, so far, these are the only 2 I could find from St.G2

 

[Crimea_River]

Looking forward to the paint splashin'.

 

[Vic Balshaw]

Looks great Paul and it'll be nice to see some colour on it.

 

[Wayne Little]

Splash away Paul!

 

[Catch22]

Yeah, looking forward to it.
