Cierva C 30/LeO C30, France 1940, Azur 1/72


Recommended Posts

Hi,

Spanish Cierva C 30 was an Autogyro - a kind of precursor of modern helicopters. It was produced under licence in UK by Avro as Rota and in France by LeO C30. The model I made from Azur kit (1/72) required replace of engine and propeller to be a LeO C30 No 32. So this was small conversion, howver later I notice that such like mine version was also issued as limited edition by Azur. Things like that happens.. The engine consists of more than 40 pieces :)

The markings are from French Campaign in May-June 1940.

Nice one. How are your eyes after putting together the engine?

Thank you for care - I made this model some years ago already - it was 6 or 7...So - still without glasses in those days :)

Cheers
