Hello everybody,

A drop of Hulk's blood to the nice Auster and we get a Beriev M-0 :

Wicked Kool !!!!!!!  I've never heard of either of those aircraft !!!!!   Do you have any inprogress pictures ????   Really, great looking plane but I'm not sure I would want to fly in one. Why is the cockpit area so big ?

Reminds me of the old Piper Cubs the Army flew as observation planes in WWII.  Take a look at them Ennis.  Love floatplanes man, keep it up :)

I like that a lot, Serval! It sure looks very purposeful with an open 'pit.

History:
The Beriev M-0 is a reconnaissance aircraft (observation plane)
used on the Baltic Sea by the Russian at the beginning of the WW2 ...

 ???

No, actually, the "M-0" is a prototype, the only one.
And, to date, only one machine was built, this one at 1/72, mine ;-)
This "Beriev" is out of my brain ...
