	Avia S199 Close Up by Norman Graf
		The Avia S-199 at the Kbely Aviation Museum outside Prague, Czech Republic, call sign UF-25 (works number S-199.178), is housed in a dimly-lit hanger crowded in with many other exhibits.
		This became the Avia S-199, which was used by the Czechoslovak Air Force until 1955, numbers of which were also sold to the nascent Israeli Air Force.
		After the end of the war, production continued under the designation Avia S-99.

	Avia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Avia S-199 was a fighter aircraft built in Czechoslovakia after World War II using parts and plans left over from Luftwaffe aircraft production that had taken place in the country during the war.
		Avia had started building Messerschmitt Me 109Gs straight after the war as the Avia S-99, but soon ran out of the 109's Daimler-Benz DB 605 engine.
		Avia was a Czech aircraft company notable for producing biplane fighters, especially the B-534.

		His red Avia BH-21 was the top attraction of most public shows, and he was one of the first pilots in the country to master higher aerobatics.
		Avia B-534 was an excellent machine, and its only fault was that it was not replaced in time.
		Avia was prevented from the production of a new turbo-propelled airliner, and its aircraft production was abolished as a whole, but development continued in Let Kunovice.

	Large Scale Planes - Frank Mitchell 1/32 Bf109G
		The S 199 nose was amputated on a line about the forward edge of the exhausts A new section was carved and sanded to shape (from some scrap hardwood), and a mold for a new spinner was turned from the same wood.
		The wings for the Avia were made by first carving the new wingtip shape from the kit wing (that span for the E and the G are essentially the same) with filling and re-scribing as necessary.
		Also, because I had done the tall tail on the S 199, I cut the whole tail section off and replaced it with the older style (If I were sane I wouldn't be a modeler).

		The decision was made to combine the two and the result was the Avia S-199.
		Avia was one such factory which had a large supply of Messerschmitt BF-109G (Gustav) airframes but no Daimler-Benz DB605 engines with which to power them.
		Because the Jumo was designed for bombers, it was powerful but heavy and developed huge amounts of torque at low speeds, making the S-199 tricky to fly as it was nose-heavy and tended to turn over when taking off or landing.

		The backbone of the IAF consisted of 25 Avia S-199 and 62 Spitfires LF Mk IXE purchased from Czechoslovakia.
		During the 1950s, France became a major supplier of warplanes to Israel, but the trust between the two countries was violated just before the Six Day War, when France declared an arms embargo on Israel.
		A variety of obsolete and surplus ex-World War II combat aircraft were quickly sourced by various means to supplement this fleet.

	IAF Museum, Avia S 199
		Israel hurriedly purchased a number of second-rate Czech made Avia S199s in May 1948.
		The S 199 was a Bf 109G-14 Messerschmitt with a Jumo 211F engine.
		The Avias were dismantled, shipped to Israel at night, and secretly reassembled at Ekron (later: Tel Nof Air Force Base).

	ISRAELI AIR FORCE FIRST DECADE 1948 - 1958
		Photo(A) reads:" Rudi Augarten with an enemy shot down plane" in another case the caption reads "Rudi Augarten with a Spitfire in...." but if you noticed the shape of the propeller, that is obviously a Avia S-199.
		Photo(B) reads:"The remains of Eddie Cohen's plane that was shot on the first aerial assault by the Israeli Air Force on 29th of May 1948" the problem with this caption is that the first four planes that took part in this assault did not carry any serial numbers on them(there is a photographical evidence).
		I have been surfing the "net" for some time now and going through the information regarding the Israeli Air Force it is pretty impressive.

	Avia S.199
		The Avia S.199 was a Czech version of the Messerschmitt Bf 109G-14 manufactured at previously German-controlled factories from the Messerschmitt blueprints.
		The standard airframe was combined with the only available engine, the Jumo 211F, and so the result differed from the original German design by having a larger engine cowling.

		By mating Jumo engines to Bf 109 airframes, the Czech aviation firm Avia was able to produce an interim fighter that found service in both the Czech Air Force and the fledgling Israeli Air Force.
		The second Israeli Avia is camouflaged in dark earth and dark green over light gray-green.
		The final gray-green Avia is very basic, with a hand-painted VK-01 on the fuselage sides.

		Nonetheless, Avia built a number of S-199s and a two-seat conversion trainer variant, the "CS-199", and even sold a batch of them to the new state of Israel in 1948.
		Avia had a stock of Daimler-Benz engines for the aircraft stored in a sugar refinery, but the refinery burned to the ground and took all the engines with it.

	HOBBYCRAFT 109s
		Note that the Avia kits differ only as far as the canopy, the Erla Haube was on earlier S.199s as built and the Avia sliding bulged canopy was on later S.199s, check your references before you chose the kit.
		Hobbycraft’s Bf109G/Ks, Avias and Hispanos are actually all derived from the same family of parts.
		As noted, the Hispano kits build the Spanish version with wing cannon and rockets, and also the cosmetically modified Battle of Britain movie version (smart move by Hobbycraft), but note that only 1523 has the B of B movie decals.

	Messerschmitt Bf 109 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		After the war, some Bf 109s were produced in Czechoslovakia as the Avia S-99 and Avia S-199.
		These were modified Bf 109G-14s, the latter with a Junkers Jumo 211F engine.
		Contrary to popular belief, the Bf 109W was made-up after the war and is entirely fictional.

	S-199s
		Although built in Czechoslovakia from surplus German airframes and engines, the Avia S-199 had only one real moment in the sun, flying (and crashing) under Israeli (well, and Egyptian) skies during the War of Independence.
		Onemore was damaged and in repair and two unassembled Avias had been damaged in REAF ground attacks on June 1.
		The pedigree of the Avia goes back beyond the Spanish Civil War, and begins with the initial design of the Bf 109, but for our purposes, we'll pick things up in post-war Czechoslovakia....
