Floor. Notice the bank doubled the bombardier on the left of the photo.

June 26, 2012
Here ,I put the HANS to give a pilot scale 1/48. From the pictures, the radio operator's seat would be in the measure. But the pilot's seat intrigues me because it seems greater in the kit.

June 26, 2012
I'm brooding with such a seat. To do so compared with JU 88 seat.Now I do not know if I change ...

June 27, 2012
Here the HANS in the cockpit. I thought it was out of scale.

Redid the seat. I used the photo as reference. I am not very good to SCRATBULDING.... hahahah

That seat,
Looks neat !

Good job Alexander, btw, I'd go for option 1...

I do like the yellow details on option 3 but I think the whole aircraft looks better in scheme 1

I'm curious to see what it's gonna be... 😉

I just started my Hobbycraft kit... just as a practice object before deciding shall I go with ICMs Do-17 or not... but I must say, feels like the kit is entirely a scratchbuild object...

Album info

I will not move much in the kit, because I knew the second has several errors. I will consider my interpretation.Of course all my research will support photos of aircraft operations. BUT the important thing is to have fun!!!!

Help is very welcome, because the material available for the Dornier DO17 is too little.
