It was designed as a courier and quick transport that could convert from pilot only to pilot & passenger. There was only one made and it is still in a museum in Europe. It is a very small model, even for 1:72.

This project has stalled as I am trying to finish 2 other projects at the moment. There are in fact 24 images on this project.

The real thing is kept in the Prague Technical Museum. It was conceived and built for the officials of the "Bata" concern.
I have completed the model some time ago and just want to warn you that the fit of the canopy is really poor (not mentioning that it is overly thick...). I suggest manufacturing the one from thin transparent foil.

I agree with Robert ... I also had problems with the adjustment of the canopy. Also the interior looks distorted looking through it.

Thanks Guys,
I have already taken the canopy into consideration and have trimmed it to adjust. Can't do much about the thickness and distortion, unless I use the original to vac-form as replacement.

That's the best you could do (the other option is to leave it open somehow) taking into account your efforts to reconstruct the interior and the effect of it I find perfect. Myself, I just painted everything appropriately, since not much is visible through this canopy...

I admire the way you have managed with fitting the canopy. Congrats!

Robert Podkonski: Thanks for that. I was a bit of work and not proven, yet. We'll see when the masks come of how successful it really was!
