I wanted to have some Russian representation in my hangar, so did not use Kit # 233 supplied decals. When ordering the P-39 Aircobra from Dumas, I also had them send a sheet of decals from Kit #234, the MIG-17.

This kit came with a 2- blade plastic propeller and no spinner, as pictured on kit box. I used Guillow’s spinner from the EDGE kit, sanded off the nose of the spinner until a hole appeared large enough to insert the center gun which was made from leftover landing gear parts.

Trial fit of parts; additional structure was added to wing and stabilizer construction. Clay was added to nose of fuselage to give model the correct balance for the tricycle landing gear.
