   The construction of the model should present no difficulty to the average modeller, so if you are ready to go, make a start with the engine bearers and front formers. With the engine bolted in position, the formers can be cemented to the bearers, then when this unit has dried

   The Boeing F4B-4 is one of America's most famous biplanes, and is an ideal prototype for a small C/L model. For those who like decorating their models in various colours, this one needs some beating. The colour schemes used by the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marines on their Boeings give ample scope to the dope dauber ! The general Navy scheme can be seen in the photographs of the model.. The wings are generally silver, with the top surface of the upper wing chrome yellow. Fuselage, struts and undercarriage are light grey, and the tail surfaces white. The cowl, formation " V " and fuselage band are red. Lettering is in black.
