Audra Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 The third aircraft of the Lithuanian aircraft designer Antanas Gustaitis - ANBO-III. The main difference of the later version is the enlarged rudder. Such rudders were installed on the already produced aircrafts. Thanks.

Maginot Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 Outstanding modelling. Very interesting subject. Be interested to know how you achieved the brushed finish on the aluminium panels. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted January 2, 2022 Share Posted January 2, 2022 That is a most beautiful thing in modelling - the scratch work on on some rare type! Great result! Please excuse me for one OT question regarding Lithuanian AF, it is on the Lockheed Vega "Lithuania II" . I have found that after landing in Ireland "The aircraft was transported to Kaunas and repaired. Later it was served with 3. bombonesiu eskadile based in Shiauliai". Are there any information available on how long she served, was it till 1940, how she looked like (painting), what was the fate after Soviet occupation?
