Hello Massimo,

I bumped recently into the Russian site https://zaika70.livejournal.com which contains very interesting pics of lend-lease aircraft. I was particularly  attracted by another version of a two-seater conversion of a P-40, most probably a P-40K.

Willing to build such aircraft in 1/72 scale, I am interested in obtaining more information on such conversion.

Hi Plator,
the plane looks interesting. The conversion work looks easy, if one has one spare extra canopy. The livery is strange, I see some white on the ailerons, probably there is some white-painted area that can only be guessed.
I have not extra informations on this plane. Please, keep me informed if there is any news on the thing.
Regards
Massimo
