revell 787 dreamliner 1/144 anyone ?


Recommended Posts

I Purchased one from TAHS at the Barnet show and im going to build as BA.

The 787-800 is set for delivery september 2012 unless they get delayed again!!!!

my guess for the registration would be something along the line of G-ZBZA to G-ZBZY.

this allows for the first batch of aircraft and fits in with BA policy of having the reg match the aircraft.

the first B777 in the fleet are registered G- ZZZA and onwards.

you never know they may even try G-PVCA due to the aircraft being mostly built from plastic.

Dont count on those reg's...

The G-ZZZx aircraft have either gone are going - at least one has been scrapped at Kemble.

Most of BA's 777's are now in the G-YMMx range

sorry Kev but BA B777 fleet are still in service and not going to be retired.

currently G-ZZZA,B,C are operating from T5 the airline calls these the 'A' market version, on the fact they have a smaller rear cargo door and a different cabin configuration.

the 'B' market Version are registered G-VIIA through To G-VIIY these are all general electric powered aircraft

all of the G-YMMA through to G-YMMU are Rolls Royce powered aircraft.

i hope that helps clariffy the B777-236 as used by BA.

There haven't been any Triple 7's at Kemble - yet!

Although the last easyJet 737-700 delivered to them is currently being dismantled there :shithappens:

I am building mine as BA. I need to get some decals from F-Dcal. I am waiting to do the BA A380 till they get them, as A380 is my favorite Plane as well as BA being my favorite Airline so i want my build to be Perfect, although i thing i be doing my BA A380 using my 1/125 kit.

Sounds about right, let them sit in the drivers seat and see how many cars and people that take out.
