Title: EKO 1/150 scale aircraft
Post by: Sunray on 15 June 2020, 07:47:46 PM
I chanced upon some examples of these 1/150 kits on ebay.  A useful scale and relatively inexpensive, with a preference for aircraft that saw Spanish service in both WW2 and post war era.  However the Fait G-91, Saab Darken and Spanish HA-200 are amongst the models

  A few come up on ebay, but am I correct in assuming they are out of production?

Did a bit deeper research, and found that the Eko plant suffered a fire and only the tooling for the 1/150 Piper Cub survived.  :(

Ah well.  The surviving kits are now collectors items .

Thanks Vic.  Some useful kits that we will never be able to obtain.
