Has any one got a set of Supermodel/Italeri CANT Z 506B floatplane instructions I could acquire a set of?
I obtained one from eBay sans instructions to build for the Coastal Command SIG as the captured CANT used from Malta in WWII. It looks as though I can figure it out without instructions with a bit of care, but it would better with, just in case!

Hi Julian,
If you can sent your e-mail adres by PM I can scan a copy of the instructions I have.
Do you have any information on the hijacked CANT? I know it was repainted in RAF colours, but don't have much information on it (Malta Flypast issue 6 (2001)). Still researching for my own build.
Regards,
Peter

I have some info about the CANT in Roy Conyers Nesbits "Torpedo Airmen" where there's a whole chapter on the episode entitled "The Flight of the Heron". It has b&w photos of the CANT arriving at Malta in Italian Camo, one in RAF Camo, which is the one that pops up on a Google image search, and a few of the captured Italian crew. The only thing I haven't found so far is if it was allocated an RAF serial, and if so what it was. The under tailplane area where it might be is in deep shadow in the picture, so I couldn't tell.

Julian, I'll see if I have one in the library and bring it to the meeting on the 26th. I think I do have one. C. Nile
