JohnHaa Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Dear fellows modellers, Here I present you with an other scratchbuild model from my Fokker collection; the Fokker F.VIIb/3m, scale 1/48. I think it is one of the most well known airliners in the thirties. My model has flown many houres in my vitrine but last year I discovered, that the connection between the wing and the fuselage was no longer solid, the glue was deteriorated. So it was time for an overhaul. It is now again in its former glory .. A replica of the well known Southern- Cross was flying “down under”, but it crashed after loosing a wheel. As far as I know, it will be rebuilt. I would love to see it flying again. Here the photographs of my model: Well I hope you enjoy the photographs ! With kind greetings, JohnHaa 21 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harold55 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 This is a beautiful model you have here. This aircraft was important and given the large number of possible schemes I have always thought a good kit would come out in 1/48 (Ford trimotor also) but no such luck yet. But we can always hope.

Spitfire31 Posted May 9, 2019 Share Posted May 9, 2019 A fabulous model, in a particularly tasteful livery. That 'turned' engine cowling is a real stunner! Kind regards, Joachim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
