Some reasonably good close-up photos you can find on the old LEMB here http://www.luftwaffe-experten.org/fo...pic=351&page=2

He means the device Sidney

Michiel, I know what he meant, thank you. There are reasonably good (although, admittedly, not necessarily) close up photos of the said device there.

Thank you Snautzer and Sidney for your kind help.
It's difficult from pictures to know the correct shape, lenght or width...
I hope that technical designs would exist somewhere...
Good Sunday

From the photos in my computer files it appears that at least two types of device were used. But sorry, I have no deffinitive close ups for you.

Re: B71 target tug device : looking for infos
 

Yes Sirbob, the device is different on B-71B.

In the czech magazine Revi was a detailed report about Avia B 71 in LW service with nice photos and drawings.
I try to find them out.

Thank to your efforts, I have finished my B-71 model.
This kit was a nightmare from the beginning to the end : missing parts (no news from ICM to my request), paint problems, and so on. But it is a precise and finely engraved kit.
I think my reproduction of the target tug device is not 100% accurate, but I did my best...
Thank you again gents !
