RS 1/72 Avia_B-135

History
Avia B-135 on wikipedia
Kit
The kit exists in two box versions, One contains the Bulgarian markings, the other contains decals for luftwafe and ficitiv Czechoslovakia AF. Both contain the sprues of light brown plastic, which is quite soft, so you need to be carefull with the tiny parts.
Construction
I started with the cockpit, painting it and gluing the PE details. Another sub-assembly was the floor, pedals, seat and bottom instrument panel. I found soon that the seat is quite small, and if glued directly to the floor, it comes very low so I cut a piece of frame and glue it to the floor as a rest for the seat.
