This latest release from Aerobonus features a resin Free French Fighter Pilot WW2 with the Normandie-Nieman Regiment 1942 - 1945 that fought with the Russians on the eastern Front against German forces.  This pilot would be suitable for the  Yak-1, Yak-3, Yak-4, Yak-9 and the Po-2.

The quality of the resin casting is flawless and bubble free.  This figure includes 2 heads so you can build this pilot figure with a leather flying helmet and goggles or with a peaked cap with a parachute hanging off one shoulder.  The instructions include painting instructions.

This pilot figure would be perfect if you want to build a Free French aircraft that fought with the Soviet forces on the eastern front.  The detailing is quite impressive in all the fine detailing including the face and the parachute. 

You can purchase this and other fine resin detail items directly from Aerobonus or from the many retailers that carry their products.  

I would like to thank Aerobonus for providing me with this product sample.
