Hi all Im building a model of my Dad's Piper Cherokee 140. Im using thé minicraft 1/48 kit. I only ever do 1/32 military fast jets so dont have a lot of knowledge about parts ect in small scales. Thé model kit has spats (wheels covers) over all three wheels and m'y Dad's aircraft didnt have spats5. Thé wheels in thé kit are moulded with thé spats so thé wheels and spats are one pièce on all three wheels. Does anyone have any ideas of what aftermarket wheels I could use in place of thé kit ones? Even 1/72 fighter aircraft wheels might work as not very Big. I would need a nose wheel of about 8mm in diamater and Two main wheels of 9 or 10mm in diamater and all three wheels approximately 4mm in thickness. Does anyone have any ideas of where I could get wheels of this size? Thé inner tyre rim doesnt matter what it looks liké as that can bé sanded/filled or whatever to make them correct. So Im Desperate for help or ideas as what wheels I could use and where to get them. Thanks all and hope you can help Cheers

Hi Finn, You area legend my Man. On thé list of walkarounds, thé 2nd one on thé list has thé perfect picture on page 4. So shows no lip, its all smooth. So will now fill thé gap, sand it and all will bé smooth and a quick spray coat. As all would know as usual, good old Trumpeter make great detailed kits, but you use a tube of filler on every Trumpeter kit you build. So thanks again Finn. Great forum this one for warsaw pact aircraft. Always someone with knowledge or ideas on thé migs or sukhois. Cheers

Hi all I am currently building a 1/32 Trumpeter SU25. I desperately need a good picture of thé front inside of thé jet air intakes. I want to know if its completely smooth or has the lip in thé front inside. Once you build thé engine as per thé instructions, there is a a lip inside thé immédiate front of thé air intake. Is that meant to bé there, or should it bé filled, then sanded completely smooth? Can anyone help? A good picture would bé perfect or if someone very knowledgable on thé SU25 could tell me. Any help most appréciated Cheers

I am making a 1/32 Mig-23 MLD flogger K however aires doesnt make à cockpit Set tu for this version. So thé research I have found is that all thé Mig-23 ML flogger G machines were all upgraded to Mig-23 MLD flogger Ks. So would using thé aires 1/32 Mig-23 ML flogger G cockpit set bé the closest cockpit set? If anyone can offer any light on this, that would bé great. Im not worried about any minute différences but as long as overall thé instrumentation and all are pretty much the same, thats fine. So can anyone with a good knowledge of thé Mig-23 ML or MLD let me know if Im right and if there are any major cockpit diffferences between thé ML and thé MLD would bé much appreciated cheers

Thanks for thé reply. I aassumed most sorties flown by thé mig23 would have been CAPS flying top cover for SU25s or mig27s. So I was thinking or putting on dual aphids and a couple or R23s. There were reports or mig23s downing Pakistani F16s with R23s but of course could never be confirmed. But dual aphids plus some rocket pods would also bé a cool loadout. I got thé Linden Hill Afghansti decals to use so Ill ses what I décidé. I welcome thé input.

Thanks for reply and great pics showing different schemes. I appreciate it.

Thanks for the reply. Now thinking it may be easier to make a machine with just an air to air loadout with aphids and some R23s and/or BM-1 rocket pods. As they were involved with contacts with Pakistani F16s and had a couple of air to air to air kills. So maybe would be a better option as after all the mig23 was designed and used as strike package escorts. So maybe a better option. Any comments? I have the linden hill "aghansti" decals so might be more appropriate vetsion. But let me know what you think. Thanks again for your Iformation and give me your opinion on you think I have the full mig23 zacto set for the mig23 so just loomi g for options
