Avia BH-3 Czech fighter

grabcad

Lovely GrabCAD'ers,this is a (rough) model of the Avia BH-3. This plane was probably the first Czech fighter plane made. It is based on its two previous models; the BH-1 and BH-2, which were sport planes. It has a length of 7 meters and was about 10 meters wide. It's power came from a 4-inline engine, which was called the IIIa and had about 185 HP. (Not included) Two of the .303 Vickers were placed on the nose for shooting the enemy planes down. Only 14 of the BH-3 were made. (Source: wikipedia.)I had somewhat a hard time finding information and clear images of this model, but it was a fun modeling experience. I put on a camouflage with the RGB-colors of the middle plane in the comparison.jpg. The reason I picked out this plane, was because it had a very special "nose" with exhaustpipes sticking out on one side. I was pretty sure none else modeled this one too, so why not give it a shot?A zip file is included with all the files for Solidworks. Also a x_b, x_t and a IGS file are there for you! Feel free to leave a comment or question!AND please like my model(s)! :)Source for the blueprint used in this model:http://drawingdatabase.com/
