Chuck's Dutch trio, all in 1/72

Post by Chuck Finley »

And now or something totally different, a Fokker T.V in 1/72 brought to you by the folks at Valom. It's not a bad kit and makes a nice addition to any early war or 1930s collection.

If you can walk away from a landing, it's a good landing. If you use the airplane the next day, it's an outstanding landing

For the second of my Dutch trio, I present a Fokker D.XXIII by RS models in 1/72. this aircraft only flew as a prototype before the German invasion and some problems with engine cooling at the time.

Oh wow, those are interesting looking aircraft Chuck and very nicely built they are too. The Dutch certainly used some characterful types!

Very interesting and well-built trio!
You did not tell us what the 3rd (smallest) model represents.

Cheers,

And for my final member of the Dutch trio, I present the De Schelde S.21 by RS models in 1/72. Unlike the other two, the S.21 never flew. It was a proposed Dutch fighter that had a single prototype being constructed when the Germans invaded in 1940. All work stopped with the fall of Holland.

Three completely new types to me. Very interesting though and worth presenting as I am particularly keen on the lesser known types, especially from the period pre-1939. Thanks for showing.

I've never seen those before, really unusual, and as someone else said well presented, thanks for sharing.
