Caudron-Renault CR. 714 Cyclone - Single No. 50
The Single Series from Mushroom Model Publications focuses on a specific airframe, sometimes even down to a specific modification or variant of an airframe. This booklet includes line drawings of the Caudron CR.714 in both 1/72 and 1/48 scale and includes some drawings (probably from a technical manual) of the engine mount, and a very complete walkaround set of pictures in black and white of the real airplane (probably in a museum while being restored). There is a selection of period (WW2-era) photographs, and there are also a handful of computer-generated full-color graphics showing the cockpit as well as a 3-view color profile that is very attractive.
The Caudron CR.714 is a relatively obscure aircraft and this book was released just in time to support the recent release of the Dora Wings Caudron, but certainly can be used for any other renderings of the CR.714 (like the Battle Axe, RS Models (as well as others that I might not be aware of). I would highly recommend this publication for modelers and fans of the CR. 714.
I would like to thank Casemate Publishing, Model Mushroom Publications, and IPMS/USA for the review sample.
