SZD 16 Gil prototype SP-1880 1958.

1/72 PZW, built 2013 to 2022, with a what if registration of VH-GWZ, finished in MM enamels with Pledge over decals from the spares folder.

1/48 AZ model L-13 Blanik

Another recently completed model. My Admiral 1/48 L-13 Blanik glider model. I had to make the rear thin line decals as the kit ones just broke apart. The ones on the wings are painted on. The kit wingspan is 33.5cm. I have done the scheme [...]

SG-38 Schulgleiter, 1:72, Liberec 1946

L-13 Blaník /// Planet models /// 1:32

This is my last build in 2018. Mentioned as a gift for my father. The kit itself is bad as much as it gets. Cockpit is practically scratchbuild, there was almost nothing in the box (definitely nothing accurate). Wings connection to [...]

LET L-13 Blaník, 1:72

More than 20 years ago, as teenager, I did my first glider flying lesson. I still remember the whole flight, we did it in the early evening, maybe one hour before sunset. The air was amazingly calm and we did not even had to touch the [...]
