Youngtiger1 Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 1/72 B-747.. to mount my 1/72 shuttle on. ;) Ditto to that!! 1/72 747 and then KC-10 for mid air refuel. I can already see that build in my head Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 I don't understand why the 747 is in the list when it has been available for a long time in 1:72. The other three are understandable although I always thought the Tristar a very attractive aircraft. Neil Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Paul I have to declare a vested interest - our company (Aircraft In Miniature Limited) has made a multi-media 1:72 747-100/200 since about 1993. It is currently available from Hannants. See AIM-Transport Wings 747-100/200. Neil Gaunt Quote Link to post Share on other sites

oldHooker Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 (edited) multi-media 1:72 747-100/200 Neil, Speaking of your 1/72 747, I was just looking through the assembly PDF file on your site and came upon a discrepancy in the main landing gear construction section; the illustration just above the circled "D" which shows the wing and body gear placement within the Landing Gear Bay Structure... the Body Gear is installed backwards, as the Scissor Linkage should be aft instead of fwd (just like on the Wing Gear). Sorry to inject a monkey wrench, but I thought you should be made aware of that. Take care, Frank Edited January 29, 2010 by oldHooker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 You just sold another one.Thanks, Paul Our pleasure Paul! Just for the record, the reason we do our kits is because I wanted some airliners in my collection and nobody else did them! Thanks Frank - something else to deal with on its next iteration!

oldHooker Posted January 29, 2010 Share Posted January 29, 2010 Thanks Frank - something else to deal with on its next iteration!Neil It's not the entire gear leg, as the upper part is correct, just the lower part needs turned around. Take care, Frank Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tnuag Posted January 30, 2010 Share Posted January 30, 2010 (edited) It's not the entire gear leg, as the upper part is correct, just the lower part needs turned around. Take care, Frank Thanks for that - it will get fixed when we revise the kit, but there are lots more kits to bring back or create first (A-310, 767, MD-80, 737, Tristar, 757, 777, MD-11, A-3...... - not necessarily in that order or certain to appear). It is quite interesting because those which existed previously effectively come out as new kits - the CAD/CAM gives remarkable results; when I saw the first radome for the DC-8 I was delighted - such delicacy. We are lucky in that the friend who does it is a modeller who is almost an artist in CAD and he is teaching me slowly! It is a slow process, and with the larger quantities we are producing expensive; for example I must have 4 or 5 kg of cast DC-10 main wheels in the workshop at present - it is a lot of wheels!
