I ' drilled the landing gear so give me your first impression, If somebody possesses the model of Legato AVIA B 35 I am always buy it ! regards topper71 Uilleann and MARU5137 2 Link to post Share on other sites
LSP_Kevin 31,527 Posted November 2, 2012 Share Posted November 2, 2012 Wow, that looks like a lot of hard work mate! But I admire your dedication, and will be following along. Those wings are certainly reminiscent of a Spitfire though. Kev Link to post Share on other sites

Mirek O 654 Posted December 3, 2012 Share Posted December 3, 2012 Oh my favorit plane. I had an idea to do it as a kit, but Legato was faster me. (I have their kit at home) Legato have AVIA B-35 first prototype. B-135 was different plane. Different wings, undercarriage and so hon. B-135 was sold only to Bulgary and production was stopped. Will look here daily. Link to post Share on other sites
