Title: Arado Ar 96 B-1, Armée de l’air, Heller, 1/72
Post by: Jicehem on October 12, 2015, 05:30:41 PM

Hello,

Here is an airplane used by the Armée de l'air just after WW2 (Total of 88 examples, 19 were still in service in 1949). Those planes were collected at Leck by the BAFO (British Air Forces of Occupation) and transferred by air to France by French pilots. One was lost en route.
They had been quickly repainted in Germany RLM 02 all around. The white markings were for training aircraft at Cognac from 1947 to 1949.
This is the Heller kit.
