Yes, I like the Dewoitine D 520 too, unfortunately I've not been able to find plans for it. I'm especially looking for plans of WW2 aircraft in 1/24 scale. I've got the 1/32 scale Me 262 plans from Shorty's which I'm going to try soon. |

Thw rocker arm blisters and the carbureter intake are added to the cowling. |

The bulbous spinner just about fills the cowling opening. |

The three sections allows diehdral to be added. |

The wing is built in three sections. |

The rudder was build seperately from the fin. |

The air intake on the lower cowling and the lower wing were made of balsa. |

Using the DD method of filling between the stringers I filled in the cowling and around the cockpit. |

A further source of color and history is the Osprey series on Aces. |

I found an excellent source of color information on Wings Pallet. |

I printed out a 4 view and mark up the details I wanted to pay attention to. |

The spars did not come out as well as the formers so I glued the sheet to the balsa and cut out the spars and wing formers. |
jerry campbell, Image # 19897 | 06 Nov 10 11:47 |
The sheets containing the fuselage formers and spars were copied them pressed to a balsa sheet and painted with Sig Thinner which melted the copy toner on to the balsa. |

Two sheets are supplied, one for building and one for print wood. I copied and cut apart the building sheet for ease of work. |

I like WW2 aircraft and have tried to find build in 1/24th scale in order to take advantage of the number of after market decals available as well as the few accessories available. No kits of WW2 French aircraft are available so I turned to working with Dave Diels plans. The Bloch MB 152C-1 is my first try at plans building. |
