I was going to do this one. There is a web page somewhere with the story in a more readable form but here's an approximation via Googlebabble. https://translate.google.com.au/translate?h...spx&prev=search At this year's farewell to summer, ie from Benesov to Rana looked Blanik L-13A fighter in the colors of the Imperial Japanese Navy. This aircraft was certainly for those who miss BLANICE after recovery, because for several years on early Blanik sleep only in the hangar. Benešovský L-13A Blanik OK-1827 (serial number 172003) was originally made in 1964 in the basic version and served Aeroclub Svazarmu in Czech Budejovice. But in 1967, he crashed and was canceled. For many, many years later, sometime in the early nineties, but with the same serial number of the aircraft being rebuilt, but in version L-13A (today it can fly) and 29 March 1993, it was again with its original matriculation OK-1827 entered in the register. But besides modernizing wing hinges lived to see the changes visible from the outside, because instead of the standard wingtips common with other types of L-13, this "Japanese" laminate end arches used in modern L-23 model 96. And so it was this year's "Rise" actually under the slogan "Japanese at the end ..." summer and the summer season. But despite such strange blowing, it was on thermal flying and so expand and flew merrily around pretty much all that was available, including Šohaj (LG-125/425), Orlik (VT-116 / M-35), but also Banjo must glider, or SZD Foka 4. and even some of those forgotten bow awakened ... |

So if I get this right Mr Zeman have a Japanese wife, who likes this glider. That's a nice story, I wonder why this is not included on camouflage description, such personal accent would be nice. And model should be released on 14th this month! |
