Username, Meatloaf109
Name, Paul
Catagory, Intermediate
Scale, 1/48
Manufacturer, Classic Airframes
Model Type, Heinkel He-51 b-2
Aftermarket, Jes' some wires.
Designed by the Gunter brothers, the He-51 was a beautiful aircraft. So naturally some Naval-type said,"Hey lets stick some floats on it." And they did.
The result was an even more elegant looking aircraft. (To my eye, anyways. I am on a floatplane kick.)
It hit the scene in 1936 and was used by Kustenjagdgruppe 136 until the fall of 1938 when they recieved Bf-109's without floats, and became II/JG 333.
I am a glutton for punishment, I have both of my other entries ready for paint, but it has been too wet here lately to airbrush, so I am going to start on this one. (And I want to.)
