    Hi!

    I don’t fully understand myself, but this machine has always been on my list. A strange 109. I especially like the interesting role of the former German-Czech military technology in Israel.
    The model is fairly new, very nice and extremely detailed. Basically we get a modified G Messser with bump propeller and ugly nose. The parts were an exact fit during dry fitting.
    This is where I am with it so far:

    Great entry and great progress so far, my friend @havrilistvan. The interior looks superb! Which brand is the kit?

    Thank you!
    Oh, I forgot to mention it: eduard's 1/72 Avia S-199 with erla canopy.

    Interior looks great, @havrilistvan. I have this kit in my queue. I wanted to build this kit because it is just enough different from a standard 109 that it is cool. Looking forward to the rest of the build.

    Progress on the Mezek.
    A really nice kit to build, the assembly went straightforward without major issues.

    Great job, Istvan @havrilistvan. I have this same kit floating around somewhere, along with the KP version which is not nearly as nice. I suspect I like the Avia for 2 reasons: It's a 109, but it doesn't look like other 109s. Cheers
