Courtesy of our prolific Russian correspondent, Igor Kolokolov, comes this chilling (literally!) walk-round of a Beriev Be-12 at rest in the winter, between operations. One can feel the cold from these images and I can't help thinking what a really unique scale model diorama this would make. Our grateful thanks, as usual, goes to Igor for so very kindly donating his photographs for display on SEAWINGS. I do hope he thawed out afterwards.....!
