In-depth kit review of famous of WWII American heavy bomber HK Models Boeing B-17G Flying Fortress 1:32
Like every kid who loves airplanes, I slapped plastic scale models together before puberty. Decades later, I decided to get serious about the hobby, and eked out a slow build of an aircraft carrier deck diorama for the Santa Cat. I dressed up my tiny “Village People” deck crew — camo...
But as both my parents knew, from living through WWII “you can not eat money” so if you can not buy food you starve, it’s why we always had a very well stocked pantry. These are the things you do when, “future supply is at best uncertain”. And that’s the state California,...

due to the prototype's crash, the Air Corps was so impressed with Boeing's design that they ordered 13 B-17s. The B-17 Flying Fortress went on to enter full-scale production and was considered the first truly mass-produced large aircraft, eventually evolving through numerous design ...
These models have extensive scale detailing available to the modeler, and a lot more labor of love to put into the bird than just rushing it to the field. Don't misunderstand me -- what I'm trying to say is that both models have their place and that, IMHO, our hobby despe...
However, it is impossible to obtain the exact aircraft model due to several models such as computational time delay and actuator and sensor dynamics in control system. As these factors increase the order of control system due to the complex models, they also increase the errors between the ...
