| Nice Model !!
Not sure who makes the kit but it is a LET 410 Turbolet....Looks a bit like a Russian Dornier copy. I would have easily thought this was the real thing but the background gives it away a little.
Regards.......Mark

| Hi!
I would rather say it's Czechoslovakian Antonov An-140. But I think Bluewavestudios is right.
Regards,
Marudek

| Indeed it is Alan,
This particular one is the Revell kit.
I particularly like this one, even though it is ugly it has a very menacing look about it, there is some rare footage of it in action on YouTube too, the commentary is in russian though.
Your go
Regards......Mark

| Those Ekranoplanes are certainly impressive! I'm sure it must be an experience flying in one - and that close to the water too!
Does anyone recognize this little model?
