My build of the 1/72 Huma kit. Largely OOB, apart from the interior framing and outsize swastika from a Microscale sheet.

Hi Parns!!!

 

Congratulations for this wonderful build of this very rare subject and kit, like all the job you have done with this one, and the paint work is a delight!!!

Thank you very much for sharing.

Cheers,

How was a build? I've bought this kit two weeks ago in Copenhagen. I  was surprised, that there is a shop where you can find still some Huma kits on the shelf!

Have you found any data on uses of this glider in war? - the production was very limited and very late...

Cheers

Hello, the build was pretty straightforward, even with the extensive interior scratchbuilding. I've got a report over at: http://www.arcair.com/Gal15/14301-14400/gal14389-Ka430-Parnaby/00.shtm

The few references that exist describe the aircraft as having been built to an RLM specification for an assault glider larger than the DFS230 and smaller than the Go242. Several were built, but got no further than the service test stage (this is one of the prototypes, without the turret above the flight deck that the eventual production machines were to have).
