Very nice additions, especially the Polikarpovs.

Dornier Do 17 V1

The Dornier Do 17 project was born as a high-speed commercial aircraft to compete with the single-engine Heinkel He 70. The V1 prototype flew in November 1934 but proved unsuitable for commercial use. Moreover, the single vertical tail fin did not provide sufficient directional stability. The V1 was lost in crash landing.

The V1 is shown as was in 1934. In the existing photos could see the patchwork paint. There were no marks.

Nice additions.

The Do-17 makes me wonder what happened to the blanks of Do-17 and Do-215 made by Naixoterk, which were taken over by Imperialist - three years ago to be finished. :twisted:
(Actually, I have similar question about Naixoterk's P-36/P-40 transferred to Nighthunter). :twisted:

And one more thing - especially (though not only) to Yqueleden.
I would really appreciate, if You would post Your works sorted "by user" rather than "by model" - in other words, wait a little bit until You have all Do-17's or Do-217's or whatever used by Germany (or whatever other country) and post them in single file, instead of posting V1 separately, V2 separately, version A separately, version B separately and so on.
Because it seems that we may finally have the FD Archive in the new site, and there are already some 6700 FD files to upload (which I will be uploading), so it would be really great if that number would not be multiplied unnecesarily, giving me more work (and headache) in the process. :twisted:

Agree. I can do is take the models I have draw already and put them together in a single file (one for Ju 288, another for Do 317, etc.).

Very nice addition.
Please do note some some stray pixels on the drawing though.

Very well, Luis! An early Dornier 17!
Another German aircraft of the sema period: Heinkel He-51.

The last biplane fighter of the Luftwaffe, saw an active career during the Spanish civil war. Depicted as flown by the German Luftwaffe in the mid 1930s; as a fighter in southern Spain in October of 1936; in a 3 color camo scheme during the fierce battle of Teruel in late 1937; and finally, as a fighter of the Bulgarian Air Force in 1942.

Thanks to Ian, for his "legal" help about the markings, and to Bk 75 for the bulgarian markings corrections.

PS: Edited by me! I found some stray orange lines and an unseen (and unexpected :lol: ) SB logo!

Great job Rey!

Small nitpick though: Bulgarian aircraft carried the St. Andrew’s cross roundel from 1941-44, so the He-51B would be around 1942-1943.

Thanks, Bk 75! Already done!

No problem, Rey!

Now here's the first fighter aircraft built in the Soviet Union: the Polikarpov I-1 monoplane fighter.
