Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to introduce another of the builds from the current Heller Classic GB, the Amiot 143. I always was a sucker for good looks, so this one was irresistible ! Painted in Chocolate paint with a cream interior, what else instantly comes to mind but a Chocolate Eclair. Work in progress below I hope you like it Great fun to build, let me know what you think. cheers Pat

Hi, From mine deep archive of French airplanes - three old Hellers: Amiot 143, Breguet 693 and Bloch 174.... I made them many years ago - Amiot comes from my school years (I think I made it in 1976 or 1975), Bloch 174 and Breguet 693 are from 1992 and 1993. Before posting them I just washed them and added as usually fresh coat of Vallejo Matt varnish, which apparently is a rather satin, not complete matt. Amiot 143c is in markings of GB II/38, France 1940: Breguet 693 is in markings of training unit of Regia Aeronautica, Oran, March 1943. She wear overpainted Vichy markings, the machine belonged before to Gr 1/51. There was an mistake in ilalian markings (not mine, but in 1943 ) - The fasces on wings are not mirror-symmetric, but all one direction. Bloch 174 is in markings of GR II/33 1e Esc., Tunis, Ai-Aouina, 1941-2, pilot Sgt. Joannic (decals from drawer, some hand painting like pilot name or emblems on tails): Comments welcome Regards Jerzy-Wojtek
