About product

Big Ed for the PBY-5A Catalina, part one

A Big Ed bundle of accessory sets for the Consolidated PBY-5A Catalina amphibian in 1:48 scale. This is not an airplane kit but a package of several separate sets that would otherwise be bought one at a time. This first part aims inside the fuselage: it holds sets for the pilot's compartment, for the rear part of the interior, for its ribs and stringers, and with them masks for the glazing. The manufacturer has designated the bundle for Revell and Eduard kits.

The real subject

The Catalina was one of the most widespread patrol aircraft of the Second World War. The PBY-5A version was given retractable landing gear, so it could operate from water and from land alike, and it was precisely that which made it an all-purpose machine for hunting submarines, for long-range reconnaissance and for rescuing downed crews. The fuselage is roomy and visible inside through the large observation windows, which makes the interior the most important part of the model.

Building tips

Work set by set and try everything dry while the fuselage halves are still apart. Bend the photo-etched parts over the edge of a ruler, glue them with super glue and paint them only once they are seated. Apply the masks onto degreased glazing and remove them while the paint is fresh, so that they do not tear the edge of the coat.

Who the bundle is for

  • Builders of patrol aircraft in 1:48 scale
  • Modelers who want to take the interior all the way to detail
  • Builders for whom several sets at once make sense
  • Advanced modelers with experience of photo-etched parts

The bundle is an accessory to a plastic kit, not a model in its own right. The Revell and Eduard kits, glue and paints are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

Several separate sets in one package. In this part they are the pilot's compartment, the rear interior, the ribs and stringers and masks for the glazing.

The two parts complement each other. This one aims at the interior, the second covers further areas of the model.

It calls for patience, tweezers and super glue. For a complete beginner it is a more demanding set.

The manufacturer has designated the bundle for Revell and Eduard kits. A fit with other kits is not stated here.
