Hi Next from my current series of "old and odd Germans" - Heinkel He 60 "La Fiera del Mar"/512. The kit by Azur (first kit released by this company) with some modifications (for example forward fireing MGs added). Painting scheme from Legion Condor (AS 88), based in El Atayon-Melilla (a Spanish territory in North Africa) 1936 and early 1937. Decals home made and some from drawer. Let me show two photos of real thing, which I found in Net: (Please note - no white wing ends as it is displayed on coloured profiles of this machine). And here is model: Comments welcome as always Best regards Jerzy-Wojtek

Hi, I found a strange mistake - all sources which I have found says, that Heinkel He 60 had two (late variants) or even one MG (early variants): https://germanwarmachine.com/weapons-technology/aircraft/heinkel-he-60 http://www.navypedia.org/arms/germany/ger_air_he60.htm https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinkel_He_60 http://www.historyofwar.org/articles/weapons_heinkel_he_60.html Since one was the observer/gunner defence gun in nose there should be only one. But photos which I have found in Net - if the up side of engine is visible - they all show that there were two MGs in nose: I have to share with this "discovery" Cheers J-W
