Order of Malta - St. John's Day

 

Here's some pictures of my two Arado 65 models. Both in Royal Bulgarian AF markings. I can’t tell which of these I made from parts of the Aurora Curtiss Racer along with other scratch built parts but I published an article in a past issue of Mushroom Models Magazine and described how I did the scratch built one. The Maltese cross style of markings are the pre war ones used and carry the King Boris Cypher on the fuselage as he bought some 8 of these aircraft along with several Do-11 bombers, out of his own pocket. Later during the war the markings took the shape of letter X enclosed in a white box outlined in black.
