The old Airfix Ford trimotor was a challenge to build, but it is a great subject and has a colourful history. Some of the model's parts were badly moulded especially the engine nacelles. The cockpit canopy was thick and did not fit all that well. Fortunately I am *good* at hiding mistakes so it all turned out OK. I am pleased with it.

I wish a new tool kit of this old workhorse would be produced to modern standards. Hats off to Airfix for releasing a 1920's civil airliner/transport non-military subject in the first place.

On to the photos --

It has been fun.
