Airfix vc-10


Recommended Posts

Hello all as the topic states my build will be a Airfix kit with TwoSix decals. I was hoping to have a Welsh kit in time for the build but it didnt happen so my entry comes from the stash. The kit was purchased a couple years ago on ebay and was listed as un started. Sadly this wasnt the case and 1 wing was glued together with very little skill. But it was cheap. Pics to come after the start of build.

Heres the mess of VC-10 parts that came with the kit I got off ebay, not quit enough for 2, but enough for 1.

There is some logic to that...:):):)

Have to admit the part about sticking a wing together does seem different but I guess the o/b had thier reasons.

I dont believe they had any reasoning behind it.

Fuselage is togther and windows were backed with styrene and filled with milliput.

The fueling boom was removed using a razor saw, zacto #11 and sanding sticks. I then backed the hole with styrene and filled some of the gap with more styrene.
