halcyonjet Posted March 26, 2018 Share Posted March 26, 2018 A 10 out of 11? Scores 10 out of 10 in my book! Superb work. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger350Pilot Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 What a beautiful model! Great work! This is quite inspiring, as I am looking forward to completing an MD-11 sometime later this year...but first, the other "thing" on the bench is calling for completion first. Very very good job! Thank you for such good work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Challenger350Pilot Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 (edited) Just realized that I had seen your finished post earlier...but somehow it popped up again on the recent list...no worries, I suppose...it deserves MORE praise.... My my my! This is FANTASTIC!! 👍 I'm amazed at how "easy" you make the conversion from the MD-11 sound. This is a great livery on a great model, and you have finished splendidly. So very inspiring. I am currently working on an Authentic Airliners MD-11, and enjoying the work; seeing your work here pushes me on to get cracking! Such good finishes on the white, grey, and natural surfaces. Thanks so much for sharing. Wow wow wow. Edited December 19, 2018 by Challenger350Pilot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billn53 Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 I flew to UK in one of these many years ago. Yours brings back memories 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astrojet Posted July 13, 2020 Share Posted July 13, 2020 On 3/20/2018 at 9:37 AM, Turbofan said: not the larger more rounded one of the MD11. Some later DC10s did have the same intake as the MD11. Not quite correct. The DC-10-10 and DC-10-30 have a strait sided center engine duct. Only the DC-10-40 has a flared duct similar to the MD-11. The -40 series had Pratt & Whitney JT-9 powerplants, which are larger diameter, rather than General Electric CF-6 series. Your conversion of a MD-11 kit into a great looking DC-10-30 is fantastic. Having flown all of the FedEx MD fleet, I really appreciate the work that went into this build. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busnproplinerfan Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 Back when low cost got you a ride on a cool plane, to bad it's before my time. Real nice work done on this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1978 Posted July 13, 2022 Share Posted July 13, 2022 I was shocked to realize that I missed this masterpiece when it was posted in 2018... Thats an absolute stunner and a great tribute to this classic tri-jet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulaero Posted February 8, 2023 Share Posted February 8, 2023 Just like above I don't know how I missed this. I have the Revell kit from the Laker boxing part built, with some aftermarket detail and decals to go with it. First time I ever flew was on one of these from Gatwick to JFK in 1974,I was small, very small......... Super job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric B. Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 Hi Really a nice conversion here! It is really inspiring and it is a far better scale DC-10 than anything I have seen from dedicated 1/144th DC-10 models before (Revell, Airfix...) By the way you just urged me ordering an EE DC-10. Beautiful build! Eric B. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
