I posted this in the "Props" forums, but thought I might get better feedback here amongst us floatplane nuts.

I just picked up Airmodel vac kits of the 1/72 Bv-238 V1 and an 1/72 Bv(Ha)- 139 V3. Anyone out there have any expirience with these kits? I've never done a vac kit of this size, but the price was right and they are SO cool.

I rather suspect this is like asking if anyone has experience of going over Niagra Falls in a barrel - you need to be a rather brave kind of person to attempt it!!! From my own experience with conventional sized vac form kits one of that size may be a bit easier but you will need - I guess- to put in quite a bit of "stiffeners" and spars etc. When faced with that kind of problem I find that following full size construction helps!

Do let us see some pictures please - there are quite a few bods present who will have very useful hints and tips.

David.
