Album info

One of the last models I put together as a teen before coming to the US was a BH-21 by Kovozávody Prostějov. When Fly came up with its short run version of this aircraft, I had to have it.

The 72020 boxing includes a version with skis, of which Avia built several. Despite the importance of this type to the Czechoslovak pre-war air force, there is paltry reference available, and I was unable to find anything but few pictures of this variant.

The kit contains nice resin details to appoint the cockpit and the ski undercarriage. There are additional resin details to build the BH-21J version, of which only a prototype was build (this type was the precursor to the later BH-33). I believe that the 72020 can produce the standard BH-21, although a separate boxing was released for this version (72012).

I also secured Brengun's PE set for this kit. In the event, I only used less than half of the parts from the fret (the kit's resin seat, for example, is superior to the fret's PE version IMO).

The kit overall is go
