With the release of the Avia 57 on Floats, our series of Avia aircraft projects are complete.
This series focused on designs by the original Czech designer, Robert Nebesar, who introduced new concepts, construction techniques, and vision to the Czech manufacturing world. Trained in the USA, he returned home to carry out his career and contribute to the fast evolving industry prior to Hitler's grasp on the area and the industry.
I have expressed my thanks in the documentation to Hurricane91 for his efforts to secure rare data and pictures to assist in these projects. Through his Czech Republic contacts named in that documentation, we have been able to achieve a reasonable representation of these designs. Unfortunately, no cockpit or interior pictures were found so we did the best we could based on textual descriptions.
Thanks to all the contributors and you, SOH membership, for your support throughout the projects.
Matt and Oleboy did some amazing work on the 51 and 156. James Banks did some very nice work on the Avia 57 flight model mods.
Nigel Richards' sounds have pulled all these aircraft into the sound heaven, each tuned specifically for the aircraft engines, props, exhausts, showing respect for the quality of sound deadening interiors.
Nigel's artistic expression throughout the Avia 56 and 57 series hoists these aircraft to new levels in quality and realism.
We are of course very appreciative of the contributions of Bill "Lionheart" Ortis and others named in the packages credits.
This then is the team that brought to you the Avia Series of Projects over the past year. And to them, I salute. :salute:
Thanks for sharing.
