Me 262 A canopy 1/72 squadron SQ9183

Hi 

I just finished cutting out this vacu form canopy--the rear section seems too large for the Revell kit 04119- has anyone else tried this canopy with this kit?

Regards,

Dog

Check the package - itusually says what kit it was designed for.  Maybe it was made to fit the Hasegawa kit?

Post a photo if you can - maybe someone will be able to suggest a fix.

It does indicate Revell as well as Hasegawa - maybe a difference in the Me 262 A vs the a1a

The rear portion of the canopy is at least 10 mm too long -- I think I'll just break out the sanding stick  & old #11 and go to town -- they give you 2 in the package, so I get one chance to mess it up -

Wish me Luck!
