    Airfix 1/144 Boac condorde

    This one has been a bit troublesome not as in the build but the humbrol clear so i have reverted back to a rattle can of gloss varnish i hope you like her.

          That's a beauty Peter , I've never been interested in civilian air liners but always liked the concord , I've been on the one at the fleet air arm museum and the first time I saw her I was amazed at how big she was but how small she was inside

          You've done a great job on her

              This is great timing! I'm building the Revell version of the same scale (had to stop to learn new techniques on kit I don't care about)

              one of the things that was troubling me was that the front wheels seem to be on a much higher plane than the rears, resulting in a downward slope in the aircraft. I have the same configuration as you, does the Airfix (and therefore the Aircraft) do the same?

              I only hope mine ends up as good as yours!
