Kit : Special HOBBY 1/32 Fiat G-50 "Finnish Aces"
Accessories : Yahu Instrument Panel
For this Group Build I will be building my first Special Hobby Kit.
The Subject selected, the Fiat G-50 flown by W.O. Oiva Tuominen of 1/Lentolaivue 26 during the Continuation war in September 1941.
Tuominen would be the Top scoring Fiat G-50 Pilot with a total of 23 victories in the type.
Pilots did not always fly their assigned aircraft so only 9 of 13 victories were scored while marked as Blue 6, he claimed a further 4 of 10 in 1942 when repainted and
marked White 5.
I previously did the same aircraft as White 5 in 1/48 scale in Group Build #9
