Interview with the builder, I think. All Polish. If you find broken and bent bits of metal fascinating stick with it.

I hope they were quicker getting off the ground in 1939.

There was a a website where there were a lot of photographs of it under construction but that seems to have gone now. All I can find is this.

Wiki says:
A full-scale non-flying model of PZL.37 ĆoĆ is currently (early 2012) being assembled at PZL Mielec factory, in the factory hall used to construct these bombers before the war. The dimensions of the model will be determined only from photographs as very little of the original blueprints for the aircraft survive, nevertheless the model shape will match the original very closely. It is being constructed from aluminium and steel leftovers from aircraft under construction at the factory and scheduled to be ready by mid-2012.
Nice that a good display model exists.
Perhaps RAFM do a similar one for Do17 next to remains of Sandy?
