February 2012 features the picture of a scratch build Polikarpov I-16 Type 24. We took this picture during one of our trips to Germany at the yearly Jet & Warbird meet of the MFC Dachau near Munich.
From Wikipedia: The Polikarpov I-16 was a Soviet fighter aircraft of revolutionary design; it was the world’s first cantilever-winged monoplane fighter with retractable landing gear. The I-16 was introduced in the mid-1930s and formed the backbone of the Soviet Air Force at the beginning of World War II. The diminutive fighter, nicknamed “Ishak” (“donkey”) by Soviet pilots, prominently featured in the Second Sino-Japanese War, the Battle of Khalkhin Gol and the Spanish Civil War-where it was called the Rata (“rat”) by the Nationalists or Mosca (“fly”) by the Republicans. The Finnish nickname for I-16 was Siipiorava (“Flying Squirrel”).

The Messerschmitt Me 262 Schwalbe (German: “Swallow”) was the world’s first operational turbojet fighter aircraft. It was produced in World War II and saw action starting in 1944 in bomber/reconnaissance and fighter/interceptor roles. It was officially named Schwalbe because the swallow, when in a dive, is one of the fastest birds known. German pilots nicknamed it the “Turbo,” while the Allies called it the “Stormbird.” While the Me 262 had a negligible impact on the course of the war (approximately 150 Allied aircraft losses for 100 Me 262 losses), its design had a strong influence on postwar aircraft development.
The HET Me163 Komet is a Fiberglass Model with Foam/Balsa Wings powered by a 70mm EDF unit. The model has enough space to accommodate LiPo packs of various sizes allowing either 3s or 4s configurations Speed freak – beware !!!!!
The SM80-45 EDF system is based on the highly successful SM89-45 and SM110 multiblade rotor design. Specially designed for the new 80mm fan Jets out there (e.g. eFlite Habu) Unlike traditional EDF units, the SM80-45 features a 11 blade rotor for improved static thrust and sound. Turbine like sound in an small scale EDF model is a dream come through thanks to this fan.
