Marcel Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Hey Gilles, I have tried twice - a Battle the 1st day and a Bloch 174 yesterday - and I will try today as well. And no, I wasn’t trying to investigate my close friend who is a Special Hobby employee - he would refuse to answer anyway 😡 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piotr Mikolajski Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 OK, I've collected probably all the suggestions that fit the tips so far, it will be easier to reject them.

Piotr Mikolajski Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 D3.1 Single engined aircraft D3.2 Fought against Italy D3.3 At least one aircraft wore the red and white Polish checkers Well... only Breguet XIX left. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pameinos Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 OR Fairey Battle. Polish squadrons in the RAF had the red and white Polish checkers painted on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pameinos Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) "D1.3 Already done in injection in 1/72 nd more than 30 years ago" True-the Airfix kit "D2.1 Suffered heavy losses, when not properly employed" NOT true against Italy for the Br 19 I 'm almost sure its a Battle, most welcome Edited November 19, 2021 by Pameinos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcel Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 I would also say Battle. The Airfix kit was injection moulded - and maybe the MPM model doesn’t count as it was a short run kit. A Breguet XIX was also made by HitKit as a short run mixed media kit - and less than 30 years ago. Never mind, it’s a good fun, isn’t it? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFAIK it was released in 1987. The important thing was that it should be injected, the technology is not important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 Breguet XIX was widely use in Poland, of course it fullfil the clue "at least one having Polish markings" Te Greek Br XIX fought against Italy. About the loses? for sure were heavy, but the number was small anyway... Completly new idea - Fairey Albacore? MPM did one in 1/72 many years ago. I am not sure if any wore Polish checker but all other clues fits, I think... Regards J-W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wulfman Posted November 19, 2021 Share Posted November 19, 2021 (edited) Greek Airforce Breguet XIX on bomber mission shot down by Italian Airforce CR-42. CASA built XIX’s flew as bombers for both sides in Spanish Civil War with heavy casualties , later used as trainers. This is the version we will be getting IMHO. Wulfman P.S.:- XIX used by Polish Airforce. P.P.S.:- Having seen photos of Br.XlX, I want one, a very wide selection of colour schemes ! So hear’s hoping it is the XIX, I’m amazed it hasn’t been done since 1987. Edited November 20, 2021 by Wulfman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gioca Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 It's the MS 406 family. Heavy losses during the German France Invasion, fought also against Italians, had the polish squares nsigna in its fuselage side during France campaign, it is the only aircraft still operational at the end of WWII and a Swiss version was produced till the 1949.

Rabbit Leader Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 Looks like the games over… It’s a Fairey Battle. @Heather Kay and many others (including me) will be very happy! http://www.frrom.com/index.php?page=Accueil-2 Cheers..

Dave. Woohoo! I'm in for at least one RAF, one to replace my adjusted Airfix Belgian, and possibly even a Greek one for when I stretch into the Med for my obsession. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very good news. I don't "do" many WWII subjects, but do have a number of favourites including the good old Battle. I can see a couple heading my way. So the question is Heather, who's going to tell Ian @Brandy!😱 Terry 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brandy Posted November 20, 2021 Share Posted November 20, 2021 I guess I'll need to make sure the landing gear is good then. Maybe it will be useful aftermarket! Ian btw that's great news! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
