Very nice pics!
Is that bullet hole under the engine of il2?
On pic 0171 is Beriev water bomber, i’ve been in a humanitarian mission with those guys working on Beriev, good folks!

THX for sharing :smiley:

The picture of the cowling with the bullithole, also shows another important thing…
The finish was not a top priority during construction. The bolt, hinges and plates are in no way flushmounted which had a very big effect on the speed and acceleration :eek:

Yes Ribbon, that hole is a real bullet hole…there is another one in the right side, just ahead of the right pilot foot.
ok now I can add more pics from Slovakia in the following days…unfortunately taken with my mobile!
I have also some videos, does anybody know how to upload?
S!

here the few in Slovakia I have taken by my smartphone

and, of course, only the Spanish crew is having a siesta under their aeroplanes :slight_smile:

Thanks Bianco

By the wing root inlets i would say it is yak-3 on those pics, but i’m not sure. Is it?

and by the painting as well…Yes it is

Great pictures bianco! It’s so good to see the second flyable Shturmovik where it belongs, in Russia! How much I want to travel there just to see her. :smiley:
