Responsibility details are not available.
A plastic kit of the British twin-engine trainer Airspeed AS.10 Oxford in 1:48 scale. The box names the Foreign Service edition, that is machines of foreign users, and covers both basic versions, the Mk.I and the Mk.II. The manufacturer is not stated here, so the contents of the package and the number of marking options are not described either - what counts is the instruction sheet in the kit.
The Oxford first flew in 1937 and became the standard multi-engine trainer of the RAF and the Commonwealth. A wooden structure with plywood skinning, a pair of Armstrong Siddeley Cheetah radial engines and a roomy fuselage made it possible to train pilots, navigators, wireless operators, bomb aimers and gunners within a single type. The Mk.I carried a dorsal gun turret and served for bombing and gunnery training, while the Mk.II had no turret and concentrated on pilot, navigation and radio training. More than eight thousand were built and Oxfords flew with a number of foreign air forces after the Second World War as well.
The fuselage has extensive glazing, so it pays to fit the canopy dry and try the fit before gluing. Mask the glazing and finish the interior before you close the fuselage up. Trainers carried large yellow areas - spray those over a white base, otherwise the yellow will not cover.
The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
