| 'Dragon' 1/72 pilots fit into the HM A-4 Recently received the Argie A-4B - great model, but IMHO needed a pilot figure to suit a 'flying mode'. Remembered I had a spare Dragon generic jet pilot from one of their 1/72 weapons sets. Referred to my Osprey "Air War over the Falklands" edition, and re-painted the helmet white and the flight-suit gray, as per the FAA uniform reference plate. Carefully open the canopy...slowly insert the pilot...push down the legs on either side of the joystick with a paper-clip...push the arms inside the cockpit...et voila! Closing the canopy also keeps the figure pushed down into the seat. As far as I can tell this is an exact and scale-appropriate fit. | |||||||||||||
