rossm Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 (edited) I just bought one of these from a show but the instructions are missing - please can anyone send me a scan. I know it shouldn't be too difficult to figure out but hard facts are better than inspired guesses! PS I know all about the accuracy and fit problems that have been mentioned on t'interweb but I'm just going to ignore them, brute force and ignorance should win out. It will be finished with S&M decals for either Brymon or BA or, if I feel brave enough a hand masked Air Southwest scheme - anyone know the exact purple they used?

richellis Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I have one in the stash, ill try and digthem out but its not too hard. Yea, people will slag it off as a kit but TBH it does look like a Dash8 when built and Ive seen some cracking conversions on the kit (dash7, and a Qsrs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Robertson Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Is the kit a 300 series or a 100 series? The reason I ask is that the S&M British Airways decals have the registration G-BRYG which was a 100 series. Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rossm Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 It's a 100 series so OK for Brymon or BA, Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Robertson Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 That's ok then, you could do Brymon or BA G-BRYG or BRYH one but the Air Southwest planes were all ex BA 300 series. Antony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rossm Posted April 7, 2012 Author Share Posted April 7, 2012 I bought the S&M decals for G-BRYH in BA colours and then ordered the paints (and some other bits). Fantatstic service from Wonderland models - ordered Good Friday afternoon and they arrived the next morning! Anyway the Xtracolours X£04 BA Pearl Grey looks ok but X322 BA World Blue 1999 looks a bit bright on the sample on the lid compared to the decals which say midnight blue. Have I got the wrong colour?
