michael301757 Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 HI EVERYONE JUST FINISHED THIS CLASSIC OLD KIT, THESE AIRFIX AIRLINERS MAY NOT MATCH THE CURRENT GENERATION OF KITS BUT I ALWAYS FIND THEM ENJOYABLE TO BUILD SO HERE IT IS. 25 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stringbag Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 Now that does look good Michael. As you say, the old Airfix kits take a little more work than newer offerings but are well worth the effort as your Trident proves. Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbofan Posted August 5, 2016 Share Posted August 5, 2016 (edited) Ahh, what a lovely little Trident! One of my favourite airliners. Love that Northeast livery. Is it the 26 decal? Glad to see you've offset the nose gear! Keep 'em coming! Cheers, Ian Edited August 5, 2016 by Turbofan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eric Mc Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 A lovely rendition. The Airfix Trident is not the most accurate model around but you've done a great job. By the way, is your keyboard "Caps Lock" button stuck down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Team Aer Lingus Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Very nice finish Michael can't have enough civilian models on here thanks for sharing Eamonn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cngaero Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 A very nice Trident in a very smart livery. I spent many a happy hour on the balcony at Newcastle airport watching these and the Viscounts of Northeast Airlines and its predecessor BKS. Very nostalgic. Thank you for sharing it.

FortyEighter Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Wow! Love the livery Michael - don't have a Trident in the stash but fancy doing one someday in BEA colours. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex1978 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 What a stunning Trident,especially in this livery. Those were the days as airliners were colorful and not the "all white tubes with wings" that are now frequent visitors at airports Very nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lindan Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Another good one from "the stash". Don't forget the rest of Heathrow from the last 50 years in your display, nice work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
