Hi Calum. Eagle Strike and Aeromaster are one and the same - Gaston has just used the "Gloria" part from the RNZAF sheets (which I wish he would reprint, I've nearly finished off my stocks!).

I thought eagle strike/Aeromaster were one and the same, after all the share the same web site.
You're not he only one who wished he would re print that sheet. Maybe we should start an e-mail campaign :-)

Such a nice set that I haven't had the heart to touch my 1/48 Areomaster RNZAF set. Still have it complete and in mint condition. Promised myself that I 'would' use when I get around to doing that 'Cat' of mine.
Ventura did a set of P-40 decals which had markings for the RNZAF P-40 "Esma Lee". The blue of the roundals is to light but worth having all the same.
Cheers.
Correction, Aeromaster did the "Esma Lee" markings- Allied P-40Ns Part 2. Not Ventura. Should look in my stash before opening my figurative gob ;D

Any ideas on a decent P-40N resin seat?

Hi to all. Ultracast are the go. They have seats for both E-M models (with Sutton or US type belts, or plain) and the N's in the same format. Remember if getting those with belts, Sutton harness for the early E's, and US type for the rest. Also from Ultracast, the best exhaust stacks in both tubular and fishtail form, E-M wheels wheels in several tread styles, and newly released N wheels in Block or diamond pattern tread. All these are locally available here in NZ from www.modelcraftsandhobbies.co.nz/Great prices and top service from Richard and Peter - I placed an order with them last Monday morning, and the parcel arrived at 8.00am the next day! Cheers, Pete M. |

Thats not P-40N seat. Just bought the True Details P-40N cockpit set. But I agree on Ultracast. great stuff. I've bought allot of it before.

Hi Calum. Yes, my apologies, not an 'N' seat yet, but sure to be done by the lads in Canada!
The TD set one isn't too bad though, much better than the Hasegawa effort.
Cheers,
Pete M.

Hi Guys, There is a review of this sheet up on Modelling madness, and there is a major Booboo on the sheet - the serial is wrong for any of the 'Gloria Lyons' a/c. On the sheet as NZ3254 which was a P-40N-20, NZ3254
Errormaster strikes again! NZ3254 was one of the others on the SP-48 (and 72) -10 RNZAF special sheet!
Cheers,
Pete M.
