Description

No WWII Battle of Britain set would be complete without the classic ME109. A design born out of simplicity and function but still with character.

Constructed from the time-honoured ‘stick and tissue’ building technique, she holds no fears to the moderately skilled builder and like our other Wingleader designs, will reward you with a surprisingly scale model that flies superbly.

The kit contains all that you need except glue and dope. There’s even an undercarriage for static display. It can be used for flying as well but will severely limit performance and is prone to damage.

At 413mm span she’s the smallest in the Wingleader range but the full-size was pretty ‘compact’ as well and that proved to be no limitation.

Many thousands of ME109 were built in World War 2 so why not make the Wingleader version another one?

Note: This is a kit, not an ARTF model.

West Wings are probably the largest manufacturer of small model kits in the UK, manufacturing all of the West Wings kits in their factory in West Cornwall. Designs draw on the extensive experience staff have gained from ‘hands-on’ modelling over many years. Combine this with full CAD drawings and their CNC cutting machines and you can appreciate how accurate the kits are. The only items in the kits that are not made in the UK are propellers from Japan and flight quality rubber specially imported from the USA. Balsa wood, being a tropical tree, does not grow in Europe; therefore it is sourced from managed and sustained forests in Ecuador and Papua New Guinea.
