discussion papa 695s 1/72 I-135 Chaika

[papa 695]

I was watching a programme about the Russians in WWII, when a couple of these where shown and I thought wow I must get one of those. So a little pm to John in the shop and three days later this arrived at my door. I know I'm doing a Mig in this GB but I must add this one as well.

Ok youve got my attention Ian!! , I was looking for one of these at cosford but didnt see one. I did the old Heller mould a few years back but its not the most detailed and supposedly has some minor accuracy issues so I was chuffed to see ICM giving us a bang up to date tooling. I'll be watching very closely and no doubt getting one sometime , cheers tony

Nice one Ian. Saw a few of these years ago flying here in NZ when they were part of Tim Wallis's Alpine Fighter Collection. Apparently a real cow to fly.

And this page should give you some detail information: http://www.kiwiaircraftimages.com/i153.html

Thanks Tony. I may need to pick your brains later.
