One of the models I perchased at the IPMS UK Scale Modelworld show was the Mirage Hobby PZL P. 11c. I will be finishing this in the markings of the aircraft that claimed the first aircraft kill on the Allied side. As this will, probably, be the only model that I build of this aircraft and therfore I will not buy any books on the subject. I was wondering if any of you had, or know, where I can find any info on this Aircraft. Thanks in advance :-)

Want do you want to know Mal?

I have a magazine article with colour three view and the history of the P-11 series.

Hi Mal

I bought this when it first came out... and almost finished it! It's a nice kit - but that was back in my bad old days of not finishing things!!

I did a fair bit of internet trawling for refs - I don't have all the links, but I can send you plenty of pics.

A great overview of the kit is http://www.kitreview.com/kitreviews/pzlp11creviewrd_1.htm

and a reference site I wish I HAD found then is http://elarger.chez.tiscali.fr/ukpzlp11.htm.

One thing to watch out for in the kit is the etched instrument panel - it's simply too big... no matter how much sanding and scraping you do...

All the best

Excellant site, some wonderful pics. Not looked at them all yet, but they have answered alot of my questions, so far. I have no Polish aircraft in my collection, yet. I must remedy that, my uncle was Polish. I want to build this kit sooner rather than later :-)

Thanks everyone for you imput, it's been a great help. It has saved me alot of time and effort, which I can ill afford at the moment.
