I was shipped this example by Airedale some time ago. A renewed hull was also shipped to me from whence I have started the kit. I reviewed the kit some time ago for track-link also. Since I did the review I have come across some parts that need to be addressed in the build that I will point out in the BLOG. I feel very fortunate to have this kit and will try to do it justice. This is one vehicle I would love to see in plastic but probably never will. Reference that I use will be also pointed out along with the build. |

| Nasty Air Bubbles | May 1, 2008 |
| I was given one of the first kits that Airedale put on the market. It is quite evident the master was very well researched and parts made extremely well. As stated earlier the main problem with my sample is the casting. Some parts were just unusable. Here the drive shaft for the propeller had to be remade because the original was just too hampered by air bubbles. Piece on left has new shaft made of Evergreen styrene rod and right shaft shows resin piece. |
