OF

Developed in the 1930s under constraints imposed by the Treaty of Versailles

and described as a highspeed mail plane for Lufthansa, the D017 was in fact a breed of

fast attack light bomber, intended to carry out raids at speeds making it almost impervious

to interception.With its sleek tapering fuselage, it was soon nick named ‘The Flying Pencil’

although this design prevented anything more than a modest bombload being carried.

Corgi Aviation Archives 1/72 die-cast metal model is of Do17Z-2 that took part in the 1941

invasion of Greece RRP £82.49 (AA38807)

NOT SO WELCOME IN GREECE

£75.00

From September 2009 four Typhoon FGR.4 have

operated as 1435 fl ight from RAF Mount Pleasant

airfi eld, as the Falklands defence force. Postings are

prized as the sparsely populated Islands allow the

opportunity for some rather enthusiastic fl ying!

The four carry tail

codes F, H, C and D

to denote Faith, Hope

and Charity, with

Desperation acting as

reserve, reminiscent

of another island’s

defence (AA36408)


£56.00

TOUGH TRAINER

Aviation 72’s neat model of the RAF Tucano

trainer turned out in a camoufl age livery for

the 2013 RAF display season The RAF en-

countered the Tucano in the Falklands in 1982

and subsequently

adopted a variant

built by Short Bros,

Belfast as an early

stage trainer. A

great little aircraft.

ON THE NORTHERN FRONT

On September 13, 1987 Flanker B Red 36 piloted by

Senior Lieutenant Vassily Tsimbal intercepted Norwegian

P-3 Orion 602 fl own by Lt. Salvesen and 9 crew members

off the Kola Peninsula. On the last of three passes, the

Su-27’s vertical stabilizer hit the P-3 propeller tearing the

tip off and sending

a piece of propeller

into 602 causing

decompression.

Remarkably both

aircraft safely

returned to base.

A superb model
