Transall NGThe main difficulty with this kit is the fitting of engines.
Other big problem is the missing of rear engine ventilation : did not find any solution to correct it !
Good luck !

AlbertoThank you for the warnings, I already had the idea to do engines completely open, now I think that is a good idea. What do you mean with rear engine ventilation?

Transall NGThere are 14 sloys on each nacelle, 7 each side, that were made on Jumo 004B to prevent the deposit of oil and fuel leaks and so to avoid fires on the ground.
Very curiously, Airfix forgot them !!!
There are no 262 perfect representation at this scale yet ! And each have their qualities ! Now i mix them...

AlbertoThank you for the info, probably i will go for engines totally exposed without fairings. i have to build the surface under the wing with milliput and 3d print the engine

Jan PetersPulling up a seat too 👀
I do like the airfix kit, but it is a bit simplified in some areas.
Where did you get those engines from?

AlbertoI bought the files from cult3d and 3d printed it with a resin 3d printer, if you search jumo004 you'll find the files they are very cheap. I also slightly modified the model for better printability in 1/72 scale.

Transall NG@ Alberto
UNI-Caenis 20 Den Black - Fishing wire. Exceptionnal, perfect for 1/72 !
I've made my two Airfix 262 with it.
