Aeroflot - Yakovlev Yak-42

[airdaniel]

An old Yakovlev Yak-42 joined to the Aeroflot fleet.

Brings back my old memories about an era of the civil aviation.

 

Simple OOB - Eastern Express 1:144 kit. Not the best kit ever so far. But unfortunately there is no other available kit released recently. Rusair's resin kit looks like not exist anymore. 😞

Excellent work as always Daniel, thanks for sharing.

 

I built the Rus-Air kit many years ago and really liked it. I had hoped to build another one once we can get Russian products again but that's a non-starter if it isn't made any more. It's good to know that the Eastern Express kit can be turned into such a fine model.

Splendidly modelled, I had forgotten what an attrctive aircraft it is. I will be looking to buy this kit in happier times, when they become more available again.

Nice idea, displaying it with a Aeroflot fleet of the same period.
