Now where can we get a kit of that?

Now where can we get a kit of that?

I honestly don't think any kits exist of the Dinfia IA 35

Phew! I thought Jim meant a kit of a creased Hellcat !

 

[GrauGeist]

Hey Terry, now there's a great idea for you to do!

A crunched Hellcat diorama!

 

[Airframes]

I did one once, back in the late 1970's, based on that well-known photo of a Hellcat, on its nose, with the fuselage cut off just behind the cockpit.
Took bl**dy ages to do, and it got wrecked a few months later, when I had to do an emergency stop on the way back from an exhibition, when some pratt ran a red light. The box it was in, restrained by a lap-strap on the rear seat, shot forward, hit the dashboard, and landed, open end of the box down, on top of the gear lever.
I was not very pleased at the time ...................

I would never defile a Grumman product like that.

I would never defile a Grumman product like that.

Terry would, especially his favorite Grumman product: the Wilcat!

Now you've done it....

 

[norab]

So this wouldn't be a good idea for a diorama????

 

[Airframes]

Now I could do that - if I could bring myself to buy kits of the Wil .... those things !
