Alex what an interesting topic. A very close friend of mine, used to be a crazy plastic modeller, now turned into an aviation historian, currently owns a genuine logbook of a German WW1 pilot flying on behalf of Ottomans at Gallipoli campaign in 1915. The pilot's family donated the book to my friend. I can get you two connected if you need further information about that era, airplanes, pictures, even dogfight details. My email is ozcanertem@gmail.com

YES. Interesting theme for a model. I won't repeat myself. In addition, I also became interested in aviation history along with the models. Apparently not an atypical occurrence in the hobby. 🙂

Certainly Живко Джаков. Especially if you are interested in early airplanes, nothing comes without researching.

An airplane I had a chance to touch at civilian registration in Turkey. Always loved it. Was not aware of the kit. I liked your model. It looks beautiful with Greek insignia and flag.

Alex, not only modelers from Greece are interested in the topic. I'm on the lookout for interesting planes from all over the Balkans. For now, apart from Bulgaria, I have Greek and Romanian planes.

Thanks everyone for taking the time to like or comment on this child(ish) effort, despite the very poor quality of both the built model and the supposed "photos"... much appreciated!
@ Ozcan: Glad we share the love for Piper's high-wing classic! It's my all-time favorite aircraft, in fact my first ever flight (even before any flight on an airliner) was in a Super Cub; altogether I had 3 short flights in two L-21B Super Cubs (glider tugs at the Athens Gliding Club) and one in a (WWII vintage) J-3/L-4 Cub, later in France... Re the Airmodel vacform kit, it was the only one available back in the '90s for a Super Cub in 1:72 - we nowadays have the KP injection Super Cubs - and I happen to know that we will surely soon see a much better built Greek Super Cub on Scalemates...
@ Jivko: Similarly, I'm happy (and I have already noticed) our common interest for planes from all over the Balkans! 👍... For my part, I have already built 2... no, 3 Bulgarian... 2 Yugoslav... and 1 Turkish (plus a 2nd in progress... the 3rd Turkish will be surely an L-4). In a way, I was inspired for this by some Latin American modelers here on Scalemates (for instance: ajuradovb - but there are others too), who have an interest for aircraft from the entire Central/South American subcontinent - and I thought, shouldn't we have perhaps a similar approach for the Balkan countries? I think our respective "collections" reflect this common interest of ours... I'll PM you back for the aircraft you are interested in.
Cheers, mates!
