1/72 X/YB-35 “Flying Wing”

Description

This is an injection-plastic aircraft model kit.

Reissue by Italeri of the AMT 1/72-scale X/YB-35 kit with parts and decals to build either version of the “Flying Wing.” Includes walkway decals and photograph-style instructions. Plus, Italeri has packed the kit into a much smaller, more “closet shelf friendly” box. A nice kit, but experienced builders have all reached the same conclusion: don’t follow the instructions! Glue the three top-half pieces together on a tabletop to give one large wingtip-to-wingtip upper half, repeat for the three sections of the lower half, then glue the completed upper and lower halves together while sandwiching the interior in between. See box art for marking details.
