Engine cooler fit to engine. Obvious is very bad match of engine cowling to engine nacelle, I choose option to fit perfect at top and rest will shape with sand stick and filler.

Back to project, now have more time 
engine glued as well front transparent cover. On one place cement exceed a bit, result of my temporary lost model ability

Combat Warplanes / Dornier Do Y
« on: October 17, 2021, 04:27:44 PM »
In 1930, Dornier Flugzeugwerke and designer Claude Dornier began work on a new aircraft. It was conceived as a further development of the Do P bomber . Due to the limitations of the Versailles Peace Treaty, the aircraft was presented as a transport. But the Kingdom of Yugoslavia, which was looking for bombers for its Air Force, became interested in the project. So the plane got its designation - Do Y (Y ? Yougoslavie). October 17 , 1931 - the first flight of the Dornier Do Y bomber .
It was an incongruous all-metal high-wing with a non-retractable landing gear. 2 = Gnome-Rh?ne 9Kers engines (600 hp) were installed in the wing nacelles, another one was placed on top of the fuselage. The maximum speed is 300 km/h, the flight range is 1500 km. Armament ? 5 ? 7.7 mm machine guns + 1.2 tons of bombs.
In total , 4 Do Y bombers were built . They were in service with the Royal Yugoslav Air Force until 1939. Later they were converted into transport aircraft.

Combat Warplanes / ?sterreichische Aviatik D.I
« on: October 16, 2021, 06:36:32 PM »
In the summer of 1916, the German engineer Julius von Berg became the chief designer of ?sterreichisch-Ungarische Flugzeugfabrik Aviatik. One of his first projects was a single-seat fighter, designated D.I. Work on it began in August 1916 and was completed in 2 months. October 16, 1916 - the first flight of the fighter ?sterreichische Aviatik D.I (aka Berg D.I).
D.I was a typical biplane for those years with a non-retractable landing gear. The Austro-Daimler 6 engine (197 hp) was installed on the 38 series aircraft, the maximum speed was 185 km / h, there was enough fuel for 2.5 hours of flight. The armament consisted of 2 ? 8 mm Schwarzlose MG M.07/12 machine guns.
Although the first flight of the D.I ended in an accident, the aircraft was brought to mass production. He became the first serial Austro-Hungarian fighter of his own design. In total, over 700 fighters were produced, which were actively used until the very end of the First World War.

Combat Warplanes / Nakajima Ki-27
« on: October 15, 2021, 06:56:43 PM »
In 1935, the Japanese Army Air Force announced a competition to develop a new fighter. It was supposed to replace the outdated Kawasaki Ki-10 biplane. Among the three companies that submitted their projects for the competition was Nakajima with its Ki-27 fighter. October 15, 1936 - the first flight of the Nakajima Ki-27 fighter.
It was a single-seat all-metal low-wing with a non-retractable landing gear. The Nakajima Kotobuki engine (650 hp) allowed speeds up to 444 km/h. The combat radius is 627 km . Armament ? 2 ? 7.7 mm Type 89 machine gun on early models and 12.7 mm Ho machine gun-103 + 7,7- mm machine gun on the late. It could also carry 4 ? 25 kg bombs.
The tests showed that the Ki-27 was inferior to the fighters of other companies in speed, but noticeably superior in maneuverability. In 1937, it was adopted under the designation Type 97. 3368 Ki-27 fighters were produced. Except #Japan, they were in service with the Air Forces of Manchukuo, Thailand, China and Indonesia.
