Bellanca J-300 "Warszaw" - the American/ Polish raid plane

In 1931 the “Bellanca Aircraft Corporation” produced a long-haul regular plane and called it the Bellanca J-300 "Special". It was a reworked CH-300 “Pacemaker”, that replaced the passenger cabin with a large fuel tank and replaced the standard engine with a 300 h. p. power Wright “Whirlwind”. The first aircraft (NR797W), named "Liberty", was intended for a flight from the island of Newfoundland to Copenhagen. The pilots failed to fly to Denmark - the plane landed in Germany after 32 hours of flight. In 1933 two Polish emigrants from the Jonava area of ​​Lithuania, Boleslow and Jozef Adamowiczi, bought NR797W for a flight to Poland. The plane received a new name - "Warsaw". Only on the second attempt in June 1934 the flight from Newfoundland via Normandy to Warsaw was successful. The company LOPP bought the J-300 plane and after, that the plane changed its registration to SP-BPG. In 1937 it was converted into a sanitary plane, but later 6 chairs for passengers were installed in its cabin. The plane was used to lift paratroopers to the height of jumps until the events of September 1939. Burned at Adamkow airfield during a Luftwaffe raid on September 12, 1939.

A simple, well-designed model for beginners and less experienced modelers. Even they can put this model together without any help from a more experienced colleague.
