How I built this (Full build) 1/48 scale Trumpeter Dragonfly Light ground Attack model aircraft.

Hello again, come and join me in constructing this great little kit of this 1/48 scale Trumpeter US-A 37B Light ground attack aircraft. Apologies for being quite a long video, but I thought it would be good to show a few processes and hopefully tips included. The beauty of this is you can jump back and forth as and when you feel like it.

This is a wonderful little kit, ideal for a beginner as I don't feel there is a high number of parts and brilliant for an advanced modeller wanting a project they can ultra detail. Released by Trumpeter in 2019.

A small bit of info:
This aircraft was designed and produced by Cessna an American manufacturer, designated as YAT-37D and later to be A-37 dragonfly or also called Super Tweet. The primary users for this aircraft was the United States Airforce, Chilean and Peruvian Airforce. The Dragonfly was later heavily modified to withstand the riggers of rough field operations, and in mid 1967 a number of A-37A's were deployed to Vietnam and flew thousands of sorties.
