Commontsar Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Awesome. Kinda like the Jastreb fighter they were doing? Can't wait to see how this turns out! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrzeM Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Cool! When I was 10 my father made something similar for me, using PZW P.11c fuselage, Plastyk Yak 1 wings and Plastyk PZL 37 Los engine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK4m Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 In Romania they made it in reality and named the low-wing derivative I.A.R. 80.... Unfortunately the Poles weren't so wise and started the Jastrzab with a clean sheet of paper. BTW do you mean the liquid-cooling for the twin-row radial is better than air-cooling?

spiton Posted February 21, 2015 Author Share Posted February 21, 2015 (edited) In Romania they made it in reality and named the low-wing derivative I.A.R. 80.... Yes, I know about it ,-)) Unfortunately the Poles weren't so wise and started the Jastrzab with a clean sheet of paper. Polish engineers had ambition. They made few very interesting projects. But they had problem with good engine. BTW do you mean the liquid-cooling for the twin-row radial is better than air-cooling? I don't know, but i like fat body of fighters like buffalo or wildcat. Completely different like spitfire and Bf-109 ,-)) Edited February 21, 2015 by spiton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
