Hi,
Thanks for stopping by and looking at my Yak-7 post.
Please may I ask if you would be kind enough to look at the link you sent me to the Soviet aircraft site. I don't seem to be able to find the translation for the slogan written on the side. I can't remember what it said!
Thank you.

One more thing, it is always useful to connect Your interest with the language You're learning.
Going out there, talking to people, buying models / paints / accessories was a great way of bridging that language barrier I felt when I arrived.
I even bought a mini compressor and all tools for it including regulator and dehumidifier battery...

No problem.
I may be perpetuating some stereotype here, but I am a Serbian who speaks a bit of Russian.
Had to learn it expressly in, like, 3 months during my work there (9 months in total so far)
ПОЛИТОТДЕЛЕЦ
ЗАЩИТНИКАМ
СТАЛИНГРАДА
Which translates:
"Politotdyelets to the defenders of Stalingrad"
Politotdyelets is a "worker of Political Department (or Branch)" (POLITicheskoe OTDELyenie - or shortly Politotdel)
Now, that smaller inscription could either be a "K-3" or cyrillic "K-Z", but in any case it is probably the designation number of that particular Polit-otdel (from which the donation of this aircraft came from).
The times were red back then - no personal or creative names for associations, companies or factories (as that might be interpreted as decadent western individualism)!
Just a bland serial number, and You're off to your merry proletariat progress, I guess...
Regards,
Aleksandar
