Looks like you're going to need a hairdryer on that wing.

Anthony Bidmead
Hi Steven, I've enquired to Revell about a replacement part but waiting to hear. In the mean time I'm going to try either the hot water method or, as you suggest, a hairdrier. Failing that I'm thinking a diorama with a crash on landing.

The bend seems to follow the engine edge, if the wing can be cut off (or even partially separated at the front, where the bend seems the most severe) along the panellines it can be aligned to the upper wing after fixing the engine nacelle.

Anthony Bidmead
Thanks for that suggestion Steven but I don't feel that confident about the process yet. I'll wait to see if I can get a replacement before experimenting.

Steven Van Dyck
You should be able to get replacement parts, I've seen Revell being generous.

Anthony Bidmead
Thanks Steven, I'll be happy if they just send the part. I've just got to be patient as they have said possibly 4 to 6 weeks. We live in hope.

Anthony Bidmead
Replacement part arrived. Can finally continue the build.

👍 good job, Anthony
