I just wonder about the thing's radiator - where is it? The tiny scoop under the tail is a bit too small, maybe a carburetor intake?

I just wonder about the thing's radiator - where is it?

Under the wings - as those of a conventional Spit.

Check the link for the model I've given before and you'll find a picture (see below) with the 2 parts for the radiator covers.

Came across this "whif-out-of-the-box": a conversion set for a Ju 290 as post-WWII airliner in Lufthansa service (the Revell kit with extra parts):



Nice, but a bit pricey... http://www.ebay.de/itm/Junkers-Ju-290-1-72-/142179115857?hash=item211a892351:g:m1AAAOSw0OBYKYO2
