Team Aer Lingus

Lmao imagine binning a kit because it isn't perfect honestly why bother buying in the first place!!! I've bought two and am using the Airfix 420 engines if I can work out (finally) how to upload pics on here I'll show how I'm getting on over the coming weeks it won't be perfect ! but it will look like a model of the real plane (I hope!!!)

It was an airline gimmick four B737 a/c were painted up 2 500 2 400 for the launch of the website Currently have A320 EI-FCC painted as a socialjet!!!t in all white with green logo's because they have launched on twitter and facebook Aer Lingus are using wet leased Finnair via Air Contractors B757 a/c later this year for services from Shannon to U.S.will be interesting to see what c/s is used on these a/c the freed up A330 will relaunch services to San Francisco from Dublin early next year.

brilliant idea nicely posed well done

Saw this beast @ Duxford on the Saturday it was very very impressive in clean configuration pass before departing so quiet too

Nice job neat line up well done

OK guys it seems this kit is either a step in the right direction or its not I'm confused are we saying don't buy it, or is it that it needs extra work but a reasonable replica can be made with a bit of effort? Secondly are Roden kits not limited run in the first place so you know what to expect? Personally I'm glad to see an injection moulded kit even if it has faults and am hoping it moves on to a B720B release sooner rather than later

Brilliant build well done two excellent looking models . Always thought the 146 was a good looking plane your models really capture the look of the a/c well

Great news finally some common sense protection rather than scrapping well done to all concerned in making this happen

Beautiful build looks great well done now how about a SH-330 to go with her ?

Looks a good 'un Have to order one lets hope Ray @ twosix has some decals to go with it

Excellent looking model love the comparison ATP well done

Brilliant line up great base can we see more of the EI B737 please ?

Hi all I attended both days with my nephew having travelled from Medway we got bus from Swindon train station & we were both impressed by Stagecoach's handling of bus transfers and the new quicker entrance at the Red gate. Queues were much shorter this year! The flying displays were excellent both days especially the Spartan and Italian EF2000 Mig29 Red Bull B-25 Chinook Dutch combo Vulcan & A400 etc. The wingwalkers do leave me cold but a lot of kids and families around us thought the were great so I guess there is a demand for different aircraft at all shows Although the static line up wasnt great there were some gems Like the Canberra Connie AN-2 & for us the opportunity to look inside our Casa 235 big thanks to all the lads from 103 Squadron . I think it does represent value for money even without the USAF but the service centre concept needs tweaking We are both Looking forward to next year

The Irish option looks like the delivery scheme pre Dayglo so how is it wrong?

After 3 weeks waiting a reply RIAT answered found out no bus on Friday so taxi it is for us ! still looking forward to going

Cheers Joe will order some at the weekend

Look forward to seeing them Sean Patrick. Did you know Marks Models in Dublin have released a limited edition Heller 1/72nd Fouga with MAXDECALS for IAC operated a/c no.s 215/6. Nice set of decals BY Joe Maxwell as always.

Hi all I've finally got a MACH3 ticket but problem is I'm flying over on Thursday. Staying in Medway and heading by train to Swindon early Friday. Can anyone tell me is there a connecting bus from Swindon on the Friday out to Fairford as the Nephew and Myself will be heading to RIAT then. ? Any advice or tips would be gratefully received many thanks !

Its a Russian boxing of the old frog kit

Hoping to put up some pics this week thank you so much for all your replies and help much appreciated.

Three Aer Lingus ordered thanks Ray any chance of a 1/72 sheet for the B737-200 to go with the F-27?

Thanks for all the advice I'm seriously thinking of cross kitting and seeing how that goes will be putting some pics up during the week as I've just purchased the Revell kit and hope to start on Tuesday

Hi all thought it was time to put something on here I'm hoping to build an Aer Lingus Lockheed 14 using the Airfix Hudson kit as a basis for this conversion. I have the Max decals sheet for the aircraft I know I have to fill the nose & rear turret but is there anything else I should look out for or conversion set that could help me any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Amazing brilliant job

Stunning looking model
