Mstislav (stiv_069) had already made the AR-1 together with a bunch of skins - You should PM him and see whether he wishes to upload it in this forum.

Excellent aircraft.........






Novel backward stagger on the wings... o_O

I believe it only needs a slot to fly in SAS 1946 skies   8)

3d model of the aircraft Dorand AR-1 -  Dimon.
I drew something like 50 skins and a template.
Everything I have on this plane is in the archive.
I suffered a stroke and no longer play IL-2.

3д модель самолета  Dorand AR-1 делал Димон.
Я нарисовал что то около 50 шкур и темплайт.
Все, что у меня есть по этому самолету лежит в архиве.
Я перенес инсульт и более не занимаюсь игрой Ил-2.

I'd also like to personally thank you for your marvellous art work
Your attention to detail and ability with graphics have always been impressive and your work continues to give me great pleasure every time I fly in IL 2 skies  8)
