The Ju-52 was only one out of many ex-Luftwaffe types that helped form the Czechoslovakian Air Force after WWII. Some of them were assembled in the Letov factory out of  parts collected from many airfields all around the country and newly built parts at the time (in some cases without any drawings and documentation). One of this unique Ju-52, modified in Czechoslovakia, was serving in the 2nd  Squadron of 1st transport regiment. This particular aircraft (D-11) was depicted as this model.

The Italeri kit is a very good one. It offers the possibility of choosing various internal and external configurations for various Ju-52 versions (military/civil version, various number of windows, open/closed doors etc). I had difficulties in picking a proper configuration for right side of fuselage, because all photos of Czechoslowakian Ju-52 that I had, were showing only the left side of fusselage. I can only guess how the aircraft fusselage right side looks like, so I have chosen  the most probable version of it. The Model master's RLM71 and Revell55 were the colours used, as in the post WW2 period many Czechoslovakian aircrafts were painted with colours similar to the German ones. The roundels are my hand-made products ("cut and paint" method, out of white decal paper). The registration code D-11 has been done by a brush.
