Hawker Typhoon Tail Wheel Well
The latest item from Ultracast is designed for the Hasegawa Typhoon. The kit tail wheel well is an empty area, nothing like the real thing. This little resin item takes care of that. This piece is molded in a light cream-colored resin with no blemishes or bubbles anywhere. It is so nice there is no need to do anything but sand off a very small bit of resin flash, then simply insert it in the tail wheel recess. The well is suitably deep and provides an easy attachment point for the tail wheel.
Highly recommended
Thanks to Ultracast for the review copy and IPMS for the review opportunity.
Reviewer Bio
Floyd S. Werner Jr.
Building models since the age of 7, I’ve become known for my Bf-109s and helicopters. I currently run Werner’s Wings. I was previously the ‘star’ of the Master Class Model Building Video series. 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 a retired from the Army after 21 years of flying Cobras and Kiowa Warriors, including tours in Iraq, Bosnia, Korea, and Germany. 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!
