I am working on that Airfix 1:72 Ford tri-motor.
I am tearing my hair (and I don't have much left to tear out) trying to fit struts to the engine nacelles. Each nacelle is suspended from the wing by seven struts. The plans show an adequate view of which struts go where on the nacelles, but not where they fasten to the wings.
I have made a template from clear plastic sheet to match the holes in the wing, so I can glue the struts to the nacelles. I must have such a jig because the pins on the ends of the struts are very short- basically hemispheres, and do not hold the struts at a definitive angle. I made a guess at which struts go into which hole in the wings, but the struts are not the correct length to go into those holes, so apparently the arrangement of the struts is different than I supposed.
I know this is an old kit, but I am hoping someone has built this kit and has it still around and can tell me which struts go where.
