Czech Avia B-534.IV biplane WWII fighter for Fs9
- Thread starter Shessi
- Start date
The first Czech police aviation squadrons (called "Cetnicke letecke hlidky" - Gendarme aviation patrols) were founded in 1935. They were abolished in 1939 because of WWII. After the war a new police aviation squadron was established called "Letectvo sboru narodni bezpecnosti" - The aviation of the Corps of national security. This unit has been reorganised and renamed many times. It was popularly known as the National Air Guard or Security Air Guard.
A quick one, to avoid getting bored!

Looking forward to these repaints, for an already excellent aircraft 
. I think your selling yourself short Papi, the Luftwaffe scheme looks pretty cool.

Hi Pete,
What I try to do is to provide a simple, easy to use paintkit, so everybody can make his own personal favourite liveries.
The paintkit will contain the layers for the Czech Air Force and Czech Police repaints. I haven't thought about other repaints yet.

Avia B534 paintkit
Hallo Huub
I believe that a paintkit that will just have textures the way I call "factory fresh"
will be of best use for any repaint
what I mean will be a weathered neutral texture in silver/grey without markings,
just as if the ac cames out from the assembly line
Yours
Papi

I have done some attempts to add some weathering, but the fuselage textures are a bit stretched near the front, top and bottom. Therefore it is not possible to draw some credible oil streaks and stains. So my repaints will be unusual clean.
As said the paintkit be be easy to use. I think the Avia's left the factory in the colours the Czech air force flew them.

This Bulgarian repaint is the last one I did for the paint kit. The story of the Bulgarian B.534 is an interesting one. There were 74 ordered but the Bulgarians received most for free from the Germans who had captured them when they invaded Czechoslovakia. After a coup the Bulgarians switched side. So the Avia flew against the American B.24s when they were allied with the Germans and flew agaians messerschmitts when the joined the Allied forces.
All 3 repaints are available in the FS2004 WWII skins library and the simple paintkit can be found in the FS2004 utilities section.
When you wonder about the different shades of green.... so do I. But I took the colours form the profiles from the Eduard kits. As Eduard makes high quality model kits and is from the Czech republic I though they must be considered a reliable source!

Another Czechoslovakian Avia B.534 IV
This aircraft is representative of the camouflage scheme used by Avia at the end of the thirties, prior to the Munich crisis. Upper surfaces are Khaki, lower are silver doped, typically a matted shade. The lower surface of the upper wing is also khaki. The blue white Moravian eagle identifies the aircraft as belonging to the 2nd Air Regiment, while the G identifies membership with in the 36th Squadron and the 1 specifies the aircraft within the squadron. The blue tipped spinner was also a squadron identifier, although this was not an official marking. This aircraft is known to have crashed on September 6th 1937, piloted by Sergeant Julius Zaoral, following a collision with another Avia B.534.36, with private First Class Jaroslav Sodek at the controls.
It will be available later today............

Avia B-534.IV repaints
Hallo friends,
after the repaint of the bird in Luftwaffe 1/JG71, I have also uploaded a "neutral factory fresh" version for this fine bird.
I hope it might be of use for other friends to make some more repaints

Thanks Papi,
So far my simple to use paint kit has been downloaded 27 time (!). However without much result until now................
Here the next repaint I finished. White 181 (W.Nr.575) from Jagdgruppe Drontheim, which was an advanced fighter training school which operated from Fliegerhorst Grove in Denmark in July 1941 (Now Karup Air base).
The original:
And the repaint:
It will be available in the library soon,

White 3 from the Fliegerleherschule (Flight instructor school) at Brandenburg-Briest summer 1940. I still need to finish some small things, but it is nearly there....
Brandenburg-Briest was the airfield from Hansa-Brandenburg and became one of the first airfields from the new Luftwaffe. In 2009 this airfield lost its function and was turned in to "Solarplatz Brandenburg-Briest"
This repaint is done after a wellknown profile from the aircraft CR+VK, which registration has been overpainted with a white 3.

german aircraft underside colors
Hi Huub,
there are two questions:
at first why most people use grey colors when they repaint german aircraft?
german aircraft had in general RLM65 blue undersides
than completely other thing, for your Jagdgruppe Drontheim screenshots, which scenery did you use?
I saw the good old Opel Blitz truck in the background - do you have a WW II scenery for Denmark?
Yours
Papi
PS a 2D panel is in the pipe, just the dashboard and some gauges changing
