Title: 1/48 Lambert Monocoach
Post by: Dave T on June 02, 2021, 07:04:20 PM
A cool little 1930s private plane design that disappeared into obscurity. Under construction.

A certain resemblance to the Beech Model 18 Expeditor. Excellent beginnings.

Need to carve props and a bit of paint touch-up.

Beautiful Monocoach. I had not known about this before you pointed it out. Excellent paint scheme.

I have been wanting to build this for a long long time after seeing the 3-view in an old magazine. The plane was from the late 1930s, but the radial engines were underpowered, so they tried inline instead.  It wasn't until this year that I found photos of the later version. I think the color scheme is correct, more or less.

Dave,

A really nice looking aeroplane . There are some great looking ones from that era.

Terrific job. Well done.

Cheers
