Victorlas Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 And the count down begins.... I'm looking forward to this kit a lot. And with the Amodel biz jets being released too, there's some interesting models on their way. If you have ideas, please let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brewerjerry Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hi Is this the a/c that was modified to the sentinel ? if so is it a kit option ? cheers jerry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romeo Alpha Yankee Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hi Is this the a/c that was modified to the sentinel ? if so is it a kit option ? cheers jerry Jerry, The Sentinel is based on the Bombardier Global Express. The CL600's bigger brother with longer fuselage and a much larger wing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr B Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Nice can a model 600 be made from this ? If not mistaken the winglets are not supposed to be there on the 600 version. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not mistaken the winglets are not supposed to be there on the 600 version. Cheers The CAD shots earlier in the thread show the early style engines, so presumably a modified -600 could be done easily ( a lot of owners had winglets retrofitted once they were available). I haven't seen any sprue shots which might show the plain wingtips so I can't say whether you can do it out of the box. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers I gathered several pics of 600 series birds and there are some with the winglets some without!! Guess one will need to have a pic of the bird you wish to model.

davepb Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 It would be nice to see the Bombardier Global Express (or even better a Sentinel) and a Falcon 20 with FRA markings for Fleet Air Arm modellers! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr B Posted April 23, 2016 Share Posted April 23, 2016 Cheers for the replies folks....much obliged I was thinking of doing a Malaysian series 600 Looks like a good kit......but as per responses.....additional work is required.....as usual Rgds 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyboy72nd Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Got my kits today - looks great!! Same excellent resin engine castings as the RJs, etch, masks, etc. The winglets are separate pieces so, Mr. B, you could do the above if you get the right engines!? The plain wing tips would be easy to do with some plastic and a file or two. The nav lights at the tips are also separate pieces so making plain tips should be a simple task. There are 5 schemes - 4 RCAF dark blue birds & a Luftwaffe al white machine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky coffeeboat Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 If you have ideas, please let me know. Apologies for the late reply, been out of signal range, but to answer Victorlas with some ideas: Bombardier Challenger 300 Cessna 750 Citation X Dassault 7X Jeff 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gulfstream 1, 2, or 3, Jetstar etc... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinky coffeeboat Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 Oh yes, forgot the early Gulfstream. And the current ones too. In fact, pretty much any biz jet would be welcomed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
