Rules of the Road

Welcome to the Keep it Civil Group Build!

 

The theme for this group build is any aircraft or helicopter operated by civilians or non-military organisations. Military training units are excluded, as are civilian-owned warbirds painted in faux wartime colours. The emphasis is on non-military liveries and finishes.

So Nanchang CF-6 are excluded. Well, had the idea to build one. Cheap kit, easy build, pretty colours.

 

How about post-war use of former military aircraft with Lozenge camo on, but disarmed and marked with civilian registrations instead of German crosses? Thinking about german airlines post WWI and german Luftpost (airmail) service.

 

To be curious: How about aircraft operated by soviet/russian DOSAAF sports organisation? They had a number of military types (Yakovlev UT-1, Aero L-39) for aerobatics.

Sounds fair to me, Brad! I'll leave Martin to work out if that fits his bill.

Thanks Kev and Brad, it is tricky, because as a Air Police it was a para-military organization that is still present and operates under the Czech/ Slovak police forces. The OK insignia  was used while in active duty within the Police, the EV marking however was applied in the research institute and a/c was used for testing purposes .

I guess the OK version seems to be more appropriate . I will look more into it and perhaps I can come up with some detail overview of the use of these planes. It's similar to CIA using N-XXXXX serials on heavily modified "civilian" planes :)

How about this started build of an UT-1: http://forum.largescaleplanes.com/index.php?showtopic=34309&p=353549

 

Does it still fit the 25% rule?

I don't know much about that aircraft, but it seems to be a military trainer to me, so I'd say that rules it out. Sorry!

Ok, here is the order of minister of internal affairs to establish Air Police , dated 1945, naturally the original establishment was dismissed with the outbreak of WW2.

The translation of the original document may not be exact, but it is as close to the original as possible.

 

notice

So , I am in the limbo, it is Police service, therefore para-military, that was operating military aeroplanes in civilian marking.  Does it comply with the rules, or is it out?
Cheers
Martin

Generally speaking, policing services are non-military organisations, so on that basis, I'd say it would comply. this one seems to be slightly more ambiguous, I'd go with the options that Brad proposed. Or, find something more straightforward.

The UT-1 served both roles, military trainer as well as sport aircraft of DOSAAF (or Osoaviachim, which was the forerunner of the DOSAAF). They took part in an air race Moscow-Sevastopol-Moscow. Looking to make the red or blue (click for the profiles).

 

Would this serve the GB given it passes the 25% rule?
