Thank you so much 
To regret, not any specific photos of Romanian version which I do in moment, so as reference I use Italian three engine cockpit photos, in hope to manage anything of info about interior paints. As can be seen oh photos, pilot instrument color is two color, central is black, outside panels are dark grey, pilot stick metal color, handles black. Most of the rest panels as well equipment is in black color. Basic interior is medium grey but here is also seen light green, with options that frame tubes are very light grey. Rear bottom section of the fuselage, in area of rear gunner, is in some kind of buff color. Pilot seat can be covered by red brown wood or field green fabric. Area of corrugated surface look like to be wooden color, medium brown, with light brown stripes. Hope this will helps if anyone of you decide to build this kit.

All subassemblies are included inside and all painted in uniform grey color. I choose this color on photos, which is lighter then have to be but as well cockpit is so closed, not much light inside, it would look better in darker surrounding.

Thank you for explanation, information's are worth to be known. Here I cement almost all elements inside and next to do will be painting. Instruction repeat old mistake where is for interior color suggested pale green (if I am correct, Verde Anticorosione) but this paint was used as base and over this was applied medium grey color. So I will paint it like that. No idea how accurate is this color inside S.M. 79 preserved in museum, but it show how this have to look like.

Russia is closing its airspace over Crimea and part of the Black Sea.
From April 20 to 24, the area over the southern part of Crimea (from Sevastopol to Feodosia) and the territorial waters of the Russian Federation adjacent to the Southern coast of Crimea, as well as over part of the international waters of the Black Sea, is included in the dangerous zone for flights.
Flights at altitudes below 19,000 meters are prohibited.

The Command of Long-range Aviation conducted a command and staff exercise at the base of the aviation compound in the Saratov region as part of a control check for the winter training period. During the flight mission, the crews practiced refueling in the air at an altitude of more than 6000 meters and a speed of about 600 kilometers per hour, as well as air patrol in a given zone. The flight mission lasted more than 7 hours. In total, about 10 long-range aircraft Tu-160, Tu-95MS and Il-78 were involved in the exercise.

Combat Warplanes / Ilyushin Il-10/ Ильюшин Ил-10
« on: April 18, 2021, 09:14:04 PM »
In 1943, the Design Bureau of S. V. Ilyushin was assigned to develop a two-seat attack aircraft, which later received the designation Il-10. The well-proven Il-2 had, nevertheless, a number of disadvantages — low speed, lack of reservation of the shooter's cabin, etc. These shortcomings were going to be eliminated in the new aircraft.
The IL-10 was created by a deep modernization of the Il-2 - improved aerodynamics, protected the gunner's cabin with armor, installed a more powerful AM-42 engine (2000 hp) , etc. The maximum speed is up to 552 km / h, the combat radius is 800 km. Armament — 2 × 23 mm cannon + 2 × 7.62 mm SHKAS machine gun + 1 × 20 mm cannon + 8 × RS-82 missiles or up to 600 kg of bombs.
The attack aircraft entered the Red Army Air Force in 1945 and he managed to fight in the final stages of the Second World War. He also participated in the Korean War. 6166 Il-10 units were produced (including 1,200 aircraft under license in Czechoslovakia). It was in service with 10 countries of the world.

Combat Warplanes / Nord 3202
« on: April 17, 2021, 01:18:22 PM »
In the early 1950s, Stampe-Vertongen SV biplanes were used to train French Army pilots.4, developed in the 1930s. To replace them with more modern monoplanes, the army published requirements for a new two-seat aircraft for primary training. Based on these specifications, Nord Aviation developed the Nord 3202.
It was a two-seat low-wing plane with a non-retractable landing gear. Production aircraft were equipped with the Potez 4D-32 (240 hp) or Potez 4D-34 (260 hp) engine, cruising speed-195 km / h, flight range-1000 km. No weapons were installed.
In 1959, after all the tests, the Nord 3202 became the main training aircraft for the training of pilots of the Army light aviation. It was also used in aerobatic competitions. 101 aircraft were produced. The last Nord 3202 was decommissioned in 1978. Several aircraft have survived in flying condition to this day.
