This is a build video. I Make the Revell Flying Fortress aircraft. It is a big plane - 19 inches in length completed and 1:48 scale. . And it is a fun build.
I also use Plastic Putty to touch up seams on the aircraft. This is a neat little product that plastic modelers use to get better looking models.
Total time to build this kit was about 20 hours.
This is a Revell Skill Level 4 which makes it a challenging build with a lot of parts. Revell skill levels go 1-5 with 1 being the easiest.
In part 2 of this series I show you how to make the Airstrip diorama for this aircraft: https://youtu.be/rRJeq0JqyFw

This is a look at and review of a telescope made by the SarBlue company. It is a 60mm Maksutov Cassegrain telescope. This means it has an excellent high quality optical system. And it makes it a tremendous value. Watch the video to learn more about it.
I also did a side by side comparison with this telescope and two other telescopes of similar size and it clearly outperformed them in every aspect including crispness, sharpness, and color accuracy. It’s a great telescope and it gets my recommendation.
It comes with everything you need to get going including a table-top tripod, a 20mm eyepiece, an adapter for your smart phone, an erect image diagonal, and an informational booklet.
More information:
You can learn more about this telescope and purchase it on amazon here (Affiliate link) https://amzn.to/2XGX5Ar

The eyepiece that comes with the telescope is a 20mm size. This gives you 37 power magnification. If you would like more power and higher magnification I recommend this eyepiece on Amazon. It is 10mm and it will give you 75 power.
