Hi Rusty,
I have the Revell/ProModeler Ju 52/3m kit in the 1/48 scale and can tell you that the detail internally and externally is good, and the corrugation is well moulded. Most of the internal cabin detail is in the bulkheads, cabin framework and para seating with some clear plastic representing lighting. The cockpit also has some detail but I feel for the likes of myself some scratch building will be in order. The engines are well moulded and reasonably detailed though some additional work on them will help with the finer detail.
The kit provides for a German or Spanish version with decals to cover both. For my kit which is scheduled for building in the next GB17, I've also purchased some additional resin and PE detailing from Aires Hobby Models. Also if you're interested I have Profile Publications Number 177 for the Junkers Ju 52 Series on PDF and if you want I'm more than happy to scan the kit plans and send them to you. Just drop me a PM with your email and it will be done.
