Keep your eye on eBay; that's your best bet. Last one listed there sold for $28 (+ shipping) last month, which is a steal, considering it was going for close to $100 last year. _________________ 11000 posts (and counting) on Airliners-India.

He flew the HS 748s for the Comm Sqdn and then as the CO of FIU. [img]2017-03-23_11-54-15 by Himmat Rathore, on Flickr[/img] _________________ Save Maharashtra!

This new air india 707 is messed up in so many ways. First the engine pylons on top of the wings should be red all the way . The engines themselves are flattened at the top along the sides. Next the silver chrome at the tail cone should be below the tail planes and not above. Nose cone is too pointy but that isn't that much of a big deal as the other issues. I did not purchase this model for the reasons above. Nor did i purchase the inflight 200 777-300 since they screwed up the tail logo at the leading edge. the red should curve almost at the point level to the fuselage. instead it curves too high and ruins the appearance. Inflight 200 also ruined the jet airways 1/200 777-300. they painted the belly gray instead of sky blue.[/b] Back to top The_Goat Member Joined: 03 Mar 2007 Posts: 3260 Location: South of France Posted: Sat Feb 03, 2018 5:08 pm    Post subject: 747-237 wrote: Added these two to my fleet this past week.

But yes, I agree, the narrowbody models in 1:400 scale are not nearly as attractive as the others, especially the AI A320NEO & the A321CEO. _________________ 11000 posts (and counting) on Airliners-India.

If so, when and why did they shift to the config with more windows? Yes, indeed, they did - the first 5 were delivered with upper deck lounges (no seats) and in a 3 window configuration. 4 (after the loss of the "Emperor Ashoka) were later sent back to Seattle for retrofitting - the 3-windowed hull of the upper deck was replaced with the more conventional one, with more windows, by the early 1980s; and the lounge replaced with business class seats. If you are interested, the Architectural Digest (India edition) will carry a photo feature on this in their May 2018 issue. I was interviewed last month for the same, for my memories of the uppder deck lounge and gave AD access to my private collection of pictures. The article will be available online as well, on the Architectural Digest India website. _________________ 11000 posts (and counting) on Airliners-India.
