Specially being (the Ilyushin more than the Sukhoi, at least for me) a pair of good looking airplanes (at least in a side view)!

Good evening, gentlemen: Two wartime soviet aircraft: Ilyushin Il-4 was a refinement of the previous Ilyushin DB-3 (in fact, it was initially known as DB-3F), with more powerful Tumansky M-88 radials, and a much refined nose. In the first years of the war, it was the backbone of the long range sovie...

Travel Air 4000 was the most built aircraft of the era (the series 2000/ 3000/ 4000), a biplane of conventional steel tube, wood, metal sheets and canvas, with between...

Good morning, gentlemen. Some Soviet interwar aircraft with radial engines. During WW2, the Soviet Union used 2 main families of radial engines: Shvetsov (derived from the American Wright Cyclone) and Tumansky (derived from the French Gnome et Rhone 14K), the former being more prevalent than the lat...

Hi, Hood. The french bombers of the era were so angular that were a pain in the eye. Very, but very ungainly aesthetically speaking. Thanks for your comment about the glass! I had modified the windshields with a very dark gray (almost black) to avoid the double pixels and the later looks better than...

Good afternoon, guys! More vintage aircraft: An early 1930s british biplane for Norway´s air service, the Armstrong-Whitworth AW.35, unfortunatelly, due problems with the skis for winter service, the mass production in Norway of this aircraft was not achieved. https://i.imgur.com/LeAdxih.png Hawker ...

Thanks a lot for your comments, Hood! There are a lot of very interesting british designs in the 1930s. And the sleeve valve Bristol radials were very advanced. Its a pity that almost all the radials were overshadowed by the magnificent Merlin! Yes, I think that probably the rivets were over ambitio...
