Here's a detailed build report by Andrew Beard (CMOT70) of Special Hobby's new 1/48 scale CAC Wirraway kit. Andrew built his model out of the box and was quite pleased with the overall quality of the kit.

Well done! mine is on the bench for early 2009! Nevertheless there are a couple of points I would like to point out/ the color of the interior should be silver dope and not grey green, then the tail wheel is undersized and the tubular structure of the cockpit is of the wrong pattern. Do not beleive I am a specialist of that plane, but have a look at that: file:///Users/jean/Desktop/Review%20-%20SH48054%20CAC%20CA-9%20Wirraway%20review%20by%20David%20Harvey.webarchive and let me know what you think. In the meantime have a great new year, best regards, jean.
