Holiday Airlines Airbus A320 /// TC-GAA 1:144


Recommended Posts

Hey Folks,

 

next one :D this A320 was a bit special for me. I flew on it in 1994. My mum hat a strange talent to book leisure holiday trips with cheap travel agencies and the result was me flying with an airline existing for a year or so. Never the less i couldn't forget that trip to AYT and 27 years later this A320 rolled out.

Since there are no decals available i had to plot and mask and paint most of it, which i am happy with either way.

 

you can find the WIP here:

 

 

Things i corrected, added and modified:

 

- Full cockpit including displays etc.

- Modified cabin windows (shape corrected with masks)

- Window blinds

- RAT case (scratched)

- Wing fuel pumps (scratched)

- Pack outlets (3d printed)

- APU inlet (3d printed)

- Landing lights, beacons, wing lights

- Wheel wells from PE

- Outflow valve case and flaps

- WBF panel screws

- ResKit main wheels

- Static dischargers (molten plastic, no good idea, next time paintbrush hair again)

- Pitots from PE

- AoA sensors scratched

- Taxi&turn off lights with lenses

- Custom decals for WBF seals

 

hope you like the pictures, still experiementing with backgrounds and cameras. :) Sorry for the dust, i was a bit untidy in removing it 😕

Just brilliant, so perfectly done in every respect.

The WBF seals are something I've never seen on a model before, let alone 1/144...

 

On the 320 they are quite prominent, happy you appreciate it! thank you!

Another great model of yours! It's hard to find the words how precisely and pretty looks this 320! Additions are great as well. 

And just like you, sometimes I apply not interesting and not pretty-looking but rare liveries of small companies. Because there are thousand of AirFrance-Lufthansa-Aeroflot etc famous big carriers models built by modellers, but it's pleasant to have my own and unique model on the shelve 😃
