First Look
I met up with the new owner of CAM resin details at the 2006 IPMS/USA National Convention and not only is he reissuing the existing CAM detail line, he's already releasing new subjects as well.
This set is a rather simple upgrade for the Monogram 1/48 Ju 52 kit, replace the main wheels with these skis and you'll have a snowbird version of the famous trimotor.
Each ski is cast as one part, and skis are provided for the main gear as well as for the tailwheel..
If you've wanted to do a winter Ju 52, you will want to pick up this nice enhancement.
My sincere thanks to John's Models for this review sample!
