Fokker E.V, Eduard 1:48, Stefan Bastyr
« on: November 13, 2013, 06:55:00 AM »
The tribute to  Stefan Bastyr, gunner, observer, fighter pilot,  the commander of Lewandówka Aerodrome and Air Group Lviv. One of  two „crazy Stefans”  (Stefan Stec & Stefan Bastyr) the founders of Polish aviation. KIA on 6 Aug 1920 allegedly due to some kind of fainting during the flight. He was known to have some heart problems.






regards

Thanks for posting photos of this very stunning model K, you have done a superb job with the overall finish, the colour scheme on this plane is very eye catching, I just love those Polish markings, congratulations and well done.

She's truly stunning, Krzysiek!  You've nailed the wing colors and streaking.  Brilliant!
Cheers,
Bud
