PE-SETS

Info Eduard - December 2011

PHOTO-ETCHED SETS

AIRCRAFT 1/48

The main December star in this scale is the Sea

Vixen. It is a very interesting plane, so also our PE

sets for it would be not conventional. Also in this

case there will be one set released during the

next year. Don’t worry – this means January. Also

to be released is a set for the Fw 189A-1and

is related to the previous three sets released

in November. Otherwise the Ju 88G-6 is cove-

red by two complete sets this month. The Junkers

is an older kit, but there are still many requests

for new sets. So you can see that patience is so-

metimes rewarded and sometime brings an inte-

resting result. In 1/48 scale there is one more set

for an older kit, in this case the A-4N by Hase-

gawa. At nally I can’t overlook a set mystically

called Static discharge wicks. They are the small

tubes with a wire, currently mounted on trailing

edges on almost every plane, including vintage

warbirds. Recently I have seen them on a ying

B-17. I am sure, that this set will be very useful

and so will be a very good seller. Something like

Remove Before Flight, that were once subjects

of large discussions about their practicability...

paper and decal based versus PE ones. After

a few years it is not possible to see the paper

or decal made RBF, but the pre-printed photo-

-etched sets are a huge sellers.
