72modeler Posted April 22, 2020 Share Posted April 22, 2020 Your 727 and C-9 Nightingale are both awesome! What a styrene surgeon you are to hang all the flying surfaces and thrust reversers out! I am soooo jealous! I'm wondering what you could do with a 1/144 Connie- those are some humongous Fowler flaps. Mike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAT69 Posted April 23, 2020 Share Posted April 23, 2020 I love airliners and would love to build 'em but 1/144 would challenger me and 1/200 would overwhelm me. It follows that I'm in awe of your work. Keep it up. Your admirers love it and that's as it should be. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex1978 Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Nice to see more of your builds.To get those tiny slats and flaps in the correct position is quite a task.👍👏 The Hasegawa kits are a joy.I also have a large number of them in my stash. Also the MRJ is very nice. I had this kit on my list for somentime but couldnt manage to get one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, fitting them is quite fiddly. How about crafting them ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doom3r Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 (edited) Fantastic models! Is there a WIP for one of these? Would be really nice if you could share a process of creating slats, flaps, breaks and reversers of older (like on DC-9) and newer (like on Poseidon) engines Edited December 17, 2020 by Doom3r 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ad-4N Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 On 11/18/2012 at 7:38 AM, AV O said: Not a full Hasegawa though : An RAF -500 (K1) A little damage on the broken fin that must be repaired properly, and wing engines reverse on the way. Fantastic job. However, I don’t know the source of those RAF roundels but they are not correctly proportioned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV O Posted May 21, 2021 Author Share Posted May 21, 2021 (edited) One more. The Right side is set with the R/R engine, Left side is with G/E. Both engines have minor differences. Apart from the engine, only the Reg. number changes on both sides. The challenge in decorating was to align properly the blue stripe along with doors and the windows decals as no window is stamped on the fuselage.

However, an authorized product reviewer might be able to give you any advice considering how to get appropriate aftermarket products. Hoping the best. Regards.
