Nemoto Scale Models of Japan offer this 1:35 scale model Smyk - made of polyester resin and finished with lacquer paint - click on the Smyk for more details |
Over the past year I've had several requests from model makers asking for plans, drawings, photos of the PW-5 Smyk.
I have no scale plans, but have tried to help if I can.
One such model project is being built by Ted Willett in Hawaii - he is building a 1:2 scale Smyk and has received some help with scale plans from Bielkso1 in Warsaw, Poland - the wingspan will be almost 20 feet ! Ted is building a replica of American PW-5 Smyk N105US - this Smyk wears a unique US Flag colour scheme
The genuine N105US - look below to see the progress of Ted's
model
Here is Ted's finished model 
Further photos of the completed Smyk can be found via this link
Here are some photos supplied by Ted Willett in July 2002 - it looks like a labour of love
