Canopy Berkley P-40 45" Warhawk

[Steve Dwyer]

A friend recently restored a 1960 built Berkley P-40 Warhawk and needs a canopy. I thought someone made this kit, any thoughts? I told him I'd do some looking around.

Park Flyer Plastics has a lot of canopies.  The show one here for the P-40, but it might be too big for your Berkeley kit version.

Keith,

The Park Flyer P-40 might fit, it's with a try. I'm also trying to talk him into making one using Brodack sheet poly and forming with heat. It's a complicated style canopy with side skirts.

Thanks,

Steve

I may have one from Bill Sawyer.  I'll try to take a photo and measure it tomorrow ...  The Berkeley P-40 was the first full fuselage model I completed as a kid, wanted to some day build another but there are so many "neater" projects around now.

Dennis,

Great, let me know what you find.

Here's the Park Flyer P-40 canopy on this model. It was the best one I could find at the time.

There's better close up photos where the build is on this model.

Might be at CFC Graphics vendor's corner?

This model was a Super Ringmaster, I think 42" in span.
