It was originally intended as a fast six-passenger mail plane and its V1 prototype flew in November 1934. Following tests and design improvements in-line and radial engine powered aircraft were evolved, represented by the Do 17E\/F and Do 17K\/M\/P, respectively. The most recognised and mass-produced variant was the Do 17Z series, with the Z-2 bombers and Z-3 long-range reconnaissance planes. Due to its fuselage outline it was dubbed the \u2018Flying Pencil\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>The Do 17 was a four-seat, all-metal monoplane powered by two Bramo Fafnir radial engines. It had a shoulder wing configuration and twin tail fins. Its long thin fuselage was fitted with a stepped cockpit and a glazed nose. Its bombload was 1,000 kg and it was fitted with six machine guns. The Z-3 variant had reduced bombload, while carrying two recce cameras.<\/p>\n<p>Do 17Zs were produced by four factories and in total some 880 aircraft were built.<\/p>\n<p>The Do 17 was used throughout the war, and saw action in significant numbers in every major campaign theatre as a front line aircraft until the end of 1941. The Finnish Air Force received 15 Do 17Z aircraft (a mix of Z-1\/2\/3 variants) in January 1942 which equipped their No.46 Squadron. The last airworthy operated aircraft were eventually scrapped in late1952.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>Colour schemes included in the kit:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>1) Dornier Do 17Z-2, CQ+HG (W.Nr. 4187), Luftwaffe, Tampere airfield, Finland, February 1942<\/p>\n<p>2) Dornier Do 17Z-3, White DN-60 (W.Nr. 2818), 1\/LeLv 46 (Squadron), Finnish Air Force (Ilmavoimat), Pyh\u00e4selk\u00e4 airfield, summer 1942<\/p>\n<p>3) Dornier Do 17Z-3, White DN-64 \u2018Ace of Spades\u2019 (W.Nr. 2822), LeLv 46 (Squadron), Finnish Air Force (Ilmavoimat), Helsinki-Malmi airport, April 1943<\/p>\n<p>4) Dornier Do 17Z-3, White DN-52 (W.Nr. 2608), PLeLv 43 (Bomber Sq.), LeR 4 (Flying Regt.), Finnish Air Force (Ilmavoimat), Luonetj\u00e4rvi airfield, summer 1947<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\"><strong>Assembly instructions:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-710\" src=\"http:\/\/www.4pluspublications.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/pdf-download.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"60\" height=\"58\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\"><strong>RELEASED 6\/2018<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"western\">This injection-moulded kit contains 63 parts, eleven clear parts (the cockpit canopies, rear ventral gunner<span lang=\"en-US\">\u2019<\/span>s window etc.) and one resin part (a camera pod).
