This is that nice KP kit! It is still available from the model kit inventory I still have from my deceased friend.
Si 204 is a quite neglected type and I still can remember from the sixties that one was lying derilict at Hilversum airfield. It was formerly used by the National Aeronautics Laboratory as general test plane. Plane was finally scrapped.

Aero C-3A kit is still offered sometimes for sale! It was produced in large numbers and even at that time easily obtainable for a very reasonable price. It still is not a rare and expensive item!
I can still remember I purchased in the mid-eighties a complete assortment of PK kits in a toy-shop in Budapest for some Euro 5 in total!

Hi,  :-salut

A nice plane. France's Armée de l'air used 20 Si 204 D, and many other under the designation SNCAN NC-701 Martinet I (185) and NC 702 Martinet II (61) which contrary to what one can read very often, has no relationship with the Si 204 A... The French Navy used 32 NC 701 and 10 NC 702. There has been also civilian users including Air France. Total production was 350.
The 14 first NC 701, although with french instrumentation were powered by genuine German Argus As 411 of 580 ch at take-off. Then, the As 411 became the Snecma 12S with some improvements.
