Title: fireboat ct93 questions
Post by: dazzle on October 25, 2016, 04:17:34 pm
I am refurbishing an aerokits fireboat i have 2 of these, 1 is up and running, other 1 probably 3 years time speed i work at, blame old age, am trying to finish the fittings of 1 of them.

I have 4 black and white photos of ct93 the real boat, not a model.

2 of these pics, 1 a photo of ct 93 at speed in the english channel, 2nd pic is on a river/estuary testing her water cannons, both show she has a pennant on the starboard side edge of the crosspiece on the rigging just below it, does anyone know the colour & pattern etc on the pennant ?

Also what colour are the scramble rescue nets on the rear cabin roof ?

The real boat does not have the u shape twin hose outlet fitting no on the cabin roof behind
the wheelhouse which i have seen fitted on most models, anyone know why it is shown on the fittings kit that i found a pic of.

Any help with these ?? would be much appreciated, as i try to get my models as close to the real boat as possible.
