What airplane do you think this is a kit of?

[Capt. Vick]

While browsing Ebay I came upon this curious pile of Resin. It appears incomplete and the seller is not quite sure what it is, guessing that it is a Blackburn Botha. I'm not so sure and thought it would be a nice brain tease for my brothers aviation.

My guess is a Martin Maryland (or is it Baltimore?) but those wings seem too short in span.

 

[SaparotRob]

Clever!

My first reaction was Baltimore / Marland, but it has a high wing. It does have a look of the Botha though.

 

[Donivanp]

A very broken one?

Miles Monitor

Oooooh! We may have a winner!

 

[CATCH 22]

Miles Monitor

Probably this one....

 

[vikingBerserker]

Nicely done!

 

[Wurger]

Yep bingo ! .. that's the M.33 Monitor. The characteristic hexagonal side window, the air inlets at the top engine cowlings and slot for the back glass part of the cockpit canopy.

 

[Capt. Vick]

Well done!

I noticed, the bulges at the undersides should be moved back more towards the ailerons.

Generally, beautiful to look at ...

Once again, I find myself educated and humbled by the knowledge of site members, If only you guys were this good with money and women, I'd be doing alright. Lol

 

[vikingBerserker]

Looks like the kit has some extra pieces like propeller spinners and tires.

Money buy model, ugh, woman hold model, no don't throw model! Aaaah need more money, buy more model!

Man, was I off by a mile and change with my guess of Do-17.

What appears to be an oversized spinner is actually the nose cone.

It looks like the horizontal portion of the empinage is missing, though.

Great mystery challenge, well done, guys!

But there are two of them for a total of 4 spinners. One looks painted black, the other is unpainted. I think the nose cone is to the left of the massive propeller blade which if the same scale appear to be a foot or two wide.

Oh...gotcha, I suspect those might be from another kit.

The little plastic bag seems to have props and gear struts in it. I can't zoom in enough with this damned phone to see for sure.

I thought the same ... the spinners, front cone and the wheels are the smaller ones.

IMHO VB is right. The large spinners don't seem to belong to the kit. The black painted wheels and the prop blade as well.
