Thanks and welcome Bruce!
With the finished build of the Ford Model A I will try to continue and finish this build. I prepared already some subassemblies over the time but it is far from done.
I will try to merge here a SE.5a from Eduard with a Roden kit. The original was a single-seat version of the B.E.2. The "b" variant here was equipped with the nose and engine taken from the SE.5a.

A warm welcome to all of you!
Yes Ludvík, an interesting piece of history, but not very successful. The performance of this night fighter was impressive due to the great 8-cylinder engine, but those were needed for the SE.5a and other types on the front. So not many machines were produced or converted for Home Defence units, some waited forever for the engine. The 200 hp Hispano-Suiza was critical scarce at that time.
Today exists a flying reproduction BE12 with a RAF 4a 160hp V12 engine.

@Michael A fun oob build helped. While the last parts were drying (I was told not to touch the Molotow chrome for a week), I dug out this build and started working on the engine.

Welcome J35J!
I uploaded pictures of the instrument panel. Here is a photo (copyright James Fahey) showing the lamps I mention in the description of picture 13:

I can and should adjust my lamps 🙂
