Czech competition

[Maveric]

Hi all,

in an old L+K-paper I found an article about the Aero Ae-50. This was the winner of a competition with many other entrys. Some of them are new for me. Do you have drawings and technical data for the Avia Av.46, Av.146, Benes Be.800 and Benes Be.850.

Thanks Maveric

Re: Czech competition (utility and observation aircraft)

Great find my dear Maveric,

I know that info about Aero Ae-50,it was two-seat high-wing
utility and military observation aircraft with a pod and boom
fuselage and powered by one Walter Minor 4-III engine,only
one prototype was built.

It was intended to compete in Czech competition for
utility and observation aircraft in the late of 1940s.

and observation light aircraft contender.

Very interesting designs, both! I'm particularly enamored with the Avia 47!!

EDIT: I've removed my question about Model 48 and 49 being close. There are a few differences.

Hi Hesham, very interesting. The czech aircraftindustry is great and had made great planes and projects over decades.
P.S.: You used the alternathistory site. Every time I use this source I get cussed out...

 

[hesham]

and for Athpilot,we always check about real designs.
