  1. It is known that "verified detailed drawings" do not exist. Possibly engineering/construction drawings may be found if you are brave enough to fight the laziness and bureaucracy of the Armee de l' air museum. The two surviving examples are special racer versions of the Breguet XIX, not useful to 3D scan but can be used to take some measurements. You need an aviation engineer/historian who can study/interpret construction drawings and measurements, then pass the info and survey the job of the 3D artist who will design the mold. Who can afford this? Tamiya maybe... At least Frrom are not so naive as Grand is...
  2. Also, Greek roundels blue is too light. a medium blue, something like FS15056 to FS15102 is more appropriate Check this:
  3. Very welcome additions I don't see any mention about the T-41 Mescalero which is a military version of the C-172. The C180/185 is not the mescalero.
  4. From another photo looks more like a fixed clear panel with the structure underneath visible.
  5. As for the Greek Battles: -Had the "clear" bomb aimer panel -used exclusively US bombs (made in Greece under license), field modified to fit the British bomb carrier -were equipped with FN38 browning machine guns -had the late style exhausts -
  6. "D1.3 Already done in injection in 1/72 nd more than 30 years ago" True-the Airfix kit "D2.1 Suffered heavy losses, when not properly employed" NOT true against Italy for the Br 19 I 'm almost sure its a Battle, most welcome
  7. OR Fairey Battle. Polish squadrons in the RAF had the red and white Polish checkers painted on
  8. Can someone help identifying the emblem on the vertical tail?? Thanks in advance.
  9. -I believe the flap wells were also painted with the airframe aluminum colour. -All Greek T-6G's after 1960 appear to to have their L/G doors removed. best regards, Pameinos
  10. This is a screenshot from a 1965 movie it appears (to me) that wheel wells are painted the same aluminum colour as the airframe
  11. The Spitfire wings had no provision for fuel tanks. These were actually US 75 galon drop tanks field modified to napalm incendiary bombs. Used against the communists during the 1946-1949 Greek civil war.
  12. The small fairing under the nose mounted the F.46 camera for recording torpedo drops.
