Bf-109E Air Intake and Injection Cover
I’ve built two of Eduard’s beautiful Bf-109Es, and in both cases an area that I would have liked to have done better was the intake and the injection cover – the injection cover especially if the engine cover is removed. Both of these parts are folded or joined out of photo etch pieces. Well, unless you are really good with PE, the result may not be as good as you’d like. Now, Quickboost remedies that situation in resin.
Molded flawlessly out of light grey resin are three pieces of resin: the air intake and two covers for the injectors. Both of these items, especially the intake, are much easier than the PE to use and look great. I will certainly enjoy using these pieces over the PE.
If you are like me and prefer resin over PE, you will enjoy these parts as well. Flawlessly rendered and wonderfully detailed, these parts are exactly what you come to expect from Quickboost. Highly recommended.
Thanks to Quickboost and IPMS/USA for the review copy and review space.

I’ve been published numerous times on various website, including Hyperscale and ARC. My work has been in FSM and Great Scale Modeling 2001, as well as, numerous other model magazines. I’m a published author with my Squadron/Signal Walkaround book on the Kiowa Warrior. My models have continuously won many regional and national awards. My unique model photography gives my models instant recognition for their historical perspective.

I’m also a retired Flight Officer for the Baltimore City Police and flew their helicopters chasing bad guys. I’m currently flying Cobras and Hueys with the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation.
I’ve been married to my high school sweetheart, Yvonne, for 42 years. Our daughters have blessed us with six grandchildren. My passions continue to be his family, friends, helicopters, models and airplanes, especially the Bf-109 and my beloved AH-1 Cobra. My motto has always been - MODELING IS FUN!
