| F-82B in 1/48! Hi all @ ww2aircraft.net. This is the second time that I need your help! I am building a series of mustangs (P-51A, P-51/A-36, F-82B) in 1/48 scale. I am stack with F-82 wheel bays. They are open in landed F-82B's, but I do not have a clue on the internal details of the area. Does any one have plans or photos of this area? I am also interested in any detailed photos of this bird, since the available documentation is rather poor. Thank you all in advance, DIO Last edited by DIO; 01-19-2008 at 03:35 PM. |

| Not the best photo, but it does show some details on the landing gear.

Oooooh! This is paradise on earth!!! Thank you so much! This really helps a lot. Do you by any chance have any other photos of such details, related to other P-82 features? Guns, Cockpits, Engines, Engine Supports etc. Thank you so much Wunger.  DIO | |

| And after the easy (!!!) wheel bays, another difficult request this time! P-82b is the only type that carried Merlin engines. So my first thought was to use the same engine mounts as in P-51D, also carrying a Merlin engine. How wrong I was! The P-82b engine frames do not have anything in common with P-51D Merlin engine mounts. So once again I am stuck. This project is so demanding in skills but in research as well. Any help will be more than welcomed Taking this chance I though it a good idea to post here few photos of the P-82 progress up to know:             Once again, thank you for your hospitality Last edited by DIO; 02-25-2008 at 08:23 PM. |
