hi there! lookin' for potential images / information about Aleksandr Pokryshkin's Yak-1 during 1941, specifically the paint scheme/camouflage and whether it had some particular symbols to it. much appreciated !

I adore you. thank you so much for that!!! you've been providing me with mindblowingly good info :D I'll have trouble translating some of it because my japanese friends find reading the thing very hard.. though I'll manage somehow, I'll do it bit by bit. I think I have literally all I need...

Do you happen to have the rest of the Meru Mechanic 43 too? if you do please do send it over! I'm searchin far and wide but cant find anything

if you ever come across the same for the Kasei-23, do let me know! that would pretty much be the cherry on top! I'll probably also be searching about the cabin pressurization method, but that's pretty much one of the last things I need along the 23

these are a goldmine! thank you for these guys. they'll definitely help out lots!

oh my god thank you so much. these are absolutely great. now I just need Engine details, materials used and some tech data here and there like how the landing gear system worked. these will definitely create a great basis

well. it would seem I have ran out of luck book wise, at least when it comes to sourcing them myself. if anyone has any kind of info available, or knowledge to share on the subject, I'd be very happy to recieve it. thank you for your efforts gentlemen.

thank you for the tips. currently searching far and wide to see if I manage to find some PDFs of the books. I did find one, the "Famous aircraft of the world" one. maybe with a bit of luck I find the rest too. after that, it's just a matter of ... *sigh* translation xD

indeed it is! we bought it from Macedonia. the plan at first was to use it to train future mechanics on it and use it as a practice plane for that purpose, but the boss of the company liked her so much that he said f*** it, restore it fully in flight condition. and that we did! except for...

Thank you very much for the materials! incredible speed at sourcing the info, too! :D

sheesh, I see.. I do have friends in Japan here and there, I'm sure they'd be up to help me out with it. at that point I'd need to get names of the books and materials if anything, so I'm able to source them. if you have any leads, or ever get the chance to check the books out, do let me know...

hopefully so! thank you :D

Thanks! we redid her whole. I still feel sorry that we had to paint over the camo it had, but the spirit of a military aircraft still lives in there. in a week or two I'll be able to enjoy her a bit :D from what I heard she was some high ranking officer's transport, she saw little to no flight...

thank you for whoever moved my thread to the right section, Still learnin how to navigate here :D

thanks! :D it looks like a rather warm and welcoming place
