Default Need Canopy Set For Royal/Marutaka B25

Can anyone help me find a canopy set for the Royal/Marutaka B25. I have two of the kits framed off of the plans and would like to finish them. I tried Hobby Barn and they have
parts for most of the old kits except the B25. Anyone with idea`s let me know.

I have two of Dion's F-4U Corsair "birdcage" canopies. His work is OUTSTANDING to say the least. I'm sure you will be pleased with the B-25 canopy set as well.

Sorry Ron, I had those in my possession but decided not to make copies, I sold what I had of the civilian planes. Although I do have the cockpit kit for those. I just didn't think they would be in demand as opposed to the military ones. It seems I was wrong on this!

Sammy,

It's nothing personal, I just stopped shipping outside the US. Like I said, it's to much trouble and I've had a greater percentage of problems from out of country sales, far greater in fact. I've had complaints about shipping costs, one guy from RCU who lives in Canada complained like crazy about a $2 overcharge in shipping even though the Paypal charges I had to pay for the transaction were over $2! I also made him a deal on the products, selling for less. Not to mention the time it took me to go to the post office, fill out the paperwork and wait in line. I gave him a $5 refund just to get him to stop wining and he never even had a thank you. Just to name one example, so never again.

Sorry,

Dion

I am curious too if Dion is still doing canopies. I need one for a 71" Hal Osborne Westland Whirlwind.
