Plastic Planet Club 1/48 310. Czechoslovak Fighter Squadron in Battle Of Britain Decals
By Matt Bittner
Plastic Planet Club is a new supplier to Internet Modeler and their decals look great. Everything is top-notch and in register, and provide some unique markings for World War II aircraft. Their first release in 1/48 covers aircraft flown by the 310. Czechoslovak Fighter Squadron during the Battle of Britain. The following aircraft are catered for:
- Hawker Hurricane Mk.I R4085 NN - A
- Hawker Hurricane Mk.I P3143 NN - D
- Hawker Hurricane Mk.I V6643 NN - Y
- Hawker Hurricane Mk.I V6619 NN - V
- Hawker Hurricane Mk.I V6556 NN - E
All are finished in the typical Day-scheme found on British aircraft with Sky undersides.
The instructions are decent enough but unfortunately this first release is primarily in Czech with very little English translation. While that isn't a big issue, it still would be nice to have the English translation for the history of the aircraft. So if you're looking for different markings for Hurricanes, and would want markings for Czech pilots, definitely pick these up.
My thanks to Plastic Planet Club for sending this in for review.
