Max Komendantov Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 The K-5 aircraft were the basis of the USSR's civilian passenger fleet in the 1930s. Sometimes they were used as agitation, sanitary, transport or even military transport. This USSR L-607 was mobilized in 1939. This machine was used during the Soviet-Finnish conflict to transport ammunition and evacuate the wounded. During the service in the VVS RKKA over the civilian registration numbers were painted red stars. 41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RidgeRunner Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Another great build, Max. :). model producers like A Model have to be applauded for producing such kits. While the subjects a not of my interest, they are certainly appealing and balance the western domination of types popularly built.

Max Komendantov Posted August 5, 2018 Author Share Posted August 5, 2018 Since the image of the aircraft engine (M-17) and a certain color scheme, it is a variant of 1939-1941. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you. BTW - how extensive was your conversion? I guess that you've made engine but also sides of fuselage. is it? cheers J-W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
