Very nice work! Julian - could you contact me please.. FYI to anyone else considering building the Honeywell testbed 757.... Airline Hobby Supplies has just released two 1/144 scale decals for this aircraft, both the earlier 2017 scheme, and the current scheme. A4-312 and A4-313 respectively. Artwork by Jennings (Butch) Heilig, both screen printed by Cartograf. In addition, Sergey Druz has produced a resin HTF7000 turbofan engine and pylon for us, it's on my web site as SD4-757-HTF7000. This is Honeywell's "Golden Engine", mounted once a year to test and calibrate the onboard equipment and sensors. So, it is appropriate for both schemes. The TFE731 turboprop engine modelled above has only ever been fitted to the 757 while in the 2017 scheme. There are images for the decals and engine here. Here's an article on the Honeywell website describing the HTF7000 engine and its 'Golden Engine' use. https://aerospace.honeywell.com/us/en/about-us/blogs/honeywell-flying-lab-relies-on-golden-engine Thanks!
