It is offered as a low‑priced project suitable for rebuild to flying or display status, a static or cockpit display, or as a valuable R‑1340 engine and parts donor,

British, Dominions and US Wings: Air War Over Greece 1940–1950 Out Soon

Soon to be released by Fonthill Media is Air War Over Greece 1940–1950: British, Dominions and United States Air Arms, author Victor Flintham’s examination of a neglected corner of military aviation history.

Following the Italian invasion of Greece in October 1940, the RAF reluctantly deployed three squadrons of Bristol Blenheim light bombers and one squadron of Gloster Gladiators, an obsolescent biplane fighter, to assist the Greek defenders. The fear among the Allies was that with Greece in Axis hands, enemy supply lines to North Africa would be significantly shortened, threatening the Allied position there and in the Middle East.

By the time Germany joined the invasion in April 1941, both the RAF and FAA had committed more squadrons and been joined by army units, but they were soon overwhelmed, retreating to Crete, from where they were evicted in May 1941 after a massive German paratroop operation. For the next three years the RAF and FAA attacked Axis forces on Crete, mainland Greece and in the Aegean with mixed success. In addition, Allied air arms, including USAAF units, dropped weapons and supplies to the Greek partisan groups. In late 1944, as the Germans were forced to withdraw from Greece, RAF units once again flew into Greek airfields, yet they were soon drawn into the bitter civil war, fighting alongside Greek government forces against Communist insurgents. After the final withdrawal of operational units in 1946, the RAF retained an air delegation in Athens until 1952, when Greece joined NATO.

The upcoming, 272 page hardcover release is currently available for pre-order with release slated for March 30.

LukGraph’s Upcoming Grumman Goose Has Stunning Interior Detail

LukGraph has released a new series of renderings for their upcoming Grumman Goose model kit in 1/32 scale. These images focus on the interior, the 3D design for which was just completed. The company states that “there’s something to discover in every corner of the bow compartment, cockpit, cabin, and rear compartment. If you choose to leave doors and hatches open, viewers can explore the “hidden gems” gradually—peering inside through these little keyholes and spotting detail piece by piece.”

The US service versions add even more equipment, including AN-Mk 4 night drift signals, a sophisticated radio rack, soundproofed wall lining, and parachutes paired with upholstered armchairs. Even the baggage compartment is richly detailed, featuring items such as a water tank, de-icing liquid tank, wash basin, “Sierra” chemical toilet, and a folded work platform—plus Mk IV parachute flare ejectors and a Type A-3 pneumatic raft.

The cabins of JRF-5 aircraft delivered for foreign service were not soundproofed, making the internal fuselage structure even more visible. The RAF version includes R1116 receivers, RAF O2A compasses, and chart boards that can be built either stowed or unfolded. Seating is a little more modest than on most US-service JRFs, but 13362 Quick Attachable Parachutes can be neatly stacked beneath. Navigation Flame Floats Mk II and Smoke Floats are also included as standard equipment. The French version additionally features the A-52 guns used in Indochina during air-support sorties.

Civilian Grumman G-21 Goose versions feature leather armchairs, a silenced cabin, and a fully “furnished” baggage compartment. Passenger essentials such as a life raft, boarding ladder, and chemical toilet are included to complete the look of a properly equipped aircraft.

As of this writing, the model is “almost ready,” although a final release date has not yet been announced. Click below to check out additional images.
