Hey all,
If anyone someone has a spare windshield from an ESCI/AMT/AMTech/Italeri KC-135, please let me know. I got a kit that's missing the windshield.
Thanks,
I don't know if this helps Tom, but I've read that the Airfix/Heller AWACS come from the AMT kit. Just recently I was looking at the windshield of the Airfix E-3D I have because I was going to use it for my Atlantic but decided to write to Airfix spare department instead to see if I can get one through them. I've just had a look at the AMT KC-135A I have and noticed that the cutout in the fuselage for the windshield looks to be the same size, the only difference between the two kits as far as I can see is the AMT kit's clear windshield part has the moulded in roof instrument panel and a separate fuselage bit that glues on top of it, whereas the Airfix one is just one clear moulding which you paint around the windows.
You could at a pinch write to Airfix and see if you can get one of their windshields.
the Heller/Airfix offerings Pre date the AMT kits by quite a few years.
OGL's right. The Airfix/Heller offerings are a different kit from the AMT/Amtech/Italeri offering.
I wonder where I got my info from :-\
Heller actually issued the AMT/Italeri KC135A & KC135FR so possible to get from Heller spare parts service
Ah OK, I'll try them. Does anyone have a kit and part number for the windscreen?
