by Reinhard Spreitzhofer on December 9, 2019 · in Aviation · 15 ≡

Also built two years ago by my dad. Didn´t knew that much about the Ju52 versions before that build. Thought with the ProModeler kit it would be an easy OOB thing because the kit includes the additional bomber parts, to say the belly [...]
