Ken Duffey is rightly acknowledged as one of the UK's leading - if not the leading - aficianardo on all things concerning Russian aircraft types. He is also a scale modeler of the highest quality and is very often published by the leading modeling magazines, and read by thousands. To get to this level it is necessary to go and find 'the real thing' - and this Ken has done here. This superb walk-round is a result of visiting the Gidroaviasalon Flying Boat Airshow held every year at the Beriev Hydroaviation Test Base facility at Gelendzhik, Russia. And, best of all, Ken has very kindly allowed us to share his photographs here. Many thanks, Ken. |
