Plastic Model Kits
Aircraft 1/72 Scale
In the 1950s, when military aircraft were beginning to reach the sound barrier, it was supposed that the pilot should fly in the prone position so that he could better withstand the expected enormous g-loads. A Meteor Mk.8 airframe was converted to carry such type of pilot’s cockpit, which was simply fixed to the fuselage in front of a standard cockpit.
Note *** Plastic Model Kits do not come with Glue & Paints unless stated otherwise.
