As popular vote decided on the Helwan Ha-200B Al Kahira for obvious reasons, I gonna start with her: so what we have here is a Resin kit by Scratchaeronautics, a small Spanish resin genius who fortunately for some of us provides us with kits of rare and ultra rare subjets my deepest respect, doing this as a hobby besides being in the Military as a day (ahmm) full time job ! maybe we can push Juan to do a Ha-300 as well one day.... so after the C-101 I did some time ago in Patrulla Aguila colors, now the first of actually 3 Ha-200 Saeta kits I have! (a Super Saeta and a standard Trainer will follow soon I hope!) but the Egyptian variant is the most interesting one of this already very interesting jet trainer! Designed by knowbody else as but Willy Messerschmitt, in Franco ruled Spain of the post civil war era for the Spanish airforce. Produced under licence by Helwan near Cairo- Al Kahira!! that was when Egypt still had higher aspirations and was not deeply entangled with fighting Israel, only small scale conflict then...... it is not really known how many were actually produced in Egypt, and what is their service history, mainly because production and use was severly affected by the 6 days war in 1967..... so, that is what you get: not too many part, or complicated instructions, but some filing and dryfitting will be necessary! most of the parts are flawlessly cast, the tanks have some smaller holes or little craters form bubbles... but nothing serious! the decals look very good, but need a varnish before dipping them into water!. A white background is provided where needed. some pictures exist, but I'd be glad so see more! @Artie has posted some here: one more in the Egyption Airfoce Museum, even with armament! http://www.aviationmuseum.eu/Blogvorm/almaza-airport-museum/#jp-carousel-16426 (looks like Sakr rockets, as used on the MiG-17.....) and one more form later times, by the fact that the roundels have changed to the current one.... (late 1970ies?) http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww3/f/404/6/0#1 I started cleaning the main parts, so far so good! cheers, Werner

Hi all...... Now that the HA200 Saeta mouldings have came to an end, we're developing some upgraded new moulds. We will offer a limited edition kit of the egyptian, license built, Helwan HA200R1 "Al Kahera". Back in 1958, La hispano Aviación signed an agreement with the Arab United Republics to build both the HA300 and the HA200 there. Some sources claim that 94 Ha200s were finally built there, though spanish records say that just 64 planes were actually built, plus 5 pre series planes, sent from Sevilla to Helluan. Those early planes had the 20mm HA804 gun pod fitted, but were later removed from the production planes. We're proud to announce a new tooled HA200R1, with full egyptian markings and 20mm gun pods. The kits will be available in two weeks. Best regards.

Good evening all.... Another foggy day here in Tenerife, so I've devoted myself to go on with this ugly thing.......some progress have been achieved, but believe me, this is not a kit for beguinners.... IMG_20180507_083846 by Arturo Navarro, en Flickr IMG_20180507_083910 by Arturo Navarro, en Flickr I must correct some things, and figure out how to paint the undercarriage legs, not much info about this plane out there.......

Hi all...Glad to announce the "soon to be available" ATR-72MP in 1/72 scale from Scratchaeronautics. It's an all new, poliuretane resin kit. My friend Juan Begines is currently working with the masters, so the kit will be available soon. i'm glad to say that all the problems he had to face sometime ago, are hopefully solved, as he's found a new, steady resin and silicone provider locally, and now he has the support of a local group of modellers wich are happy to help him with the production of the kits and the shipping of them worldwide. You can contact him directly at jbegines22yahoo.es or in his facebook site. He's also developing an online shop to make things easier. The SNCASO Narval in 1/48 scale is due to be released as well. He's now taking preorders for both kits, but, before doing anything, please pay a visit to his site or his ebay store, and check the special conditions. AFAIK, these models will be of limited availability due to the moulds nature, so no more than 50 or 60 will be made. For further details about price, shipping, etc.. please contact him directly. I've got NO commercial relationship with him, just trying to help a good friend. thumbnail_PORTADA ATR72 by Arturo Navarro, en Flickr
