Hi!
I am trying to build a 1/48 late war PBY-6A, and I would like to put the engine mounted de-icer units on my model. I have references, but they don’t give me the best views so I can see what the de-icers look like[:I]. I know that Academy makes a 1/72 PBY with these de-icers(the Black Cat). I was thinking of getting one so I could model the 1/48 one, but I would like to find more sources. Does anybody knows of any. or even if anybody makes this part?[?][|)]

I have the Monogram 1/48 PBY-5 instructions, they show part #'s 37&38 as de-icer housings. I have them in my spare box. You’re more than welcome to them. Bob
