Adam Baker Posted March 31, 2016 Share Posted March 31, 2016 Just saw on Facebook that Iron Maiden has signed an agreement to release a 1/144 kit of the Boeing 747-400 they are using on their current tour. No release date as of yet. http://loudwire.com/limited-edition-ed-force-one-model-planes/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tigerviper Posted April 1, 2016 Share Posted April 1, 2016 (edited) I have the V1 decals for this 747. The Revell kit is on the way via eBay. What engines are used by the Ed Force One? PW4000 or the Rolls Royce Thanks Youri Edited April 1, 2016 by tigerviper Quote Link to post Share on other sites
UpperDeck Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 I have the V1 decals for this 747. The Revell kit is on the way via eBay. What engines are used by the Ed Force One? PW4000 or the Rolls Royce Thanks Youri What ? You mean that the kit is already released and offered for sale on eBay ? Good catch, I thought it was planned for later. The engines are General Electric CF6-80C2 so it should be correct as I could not understand them shuffing Rolls Royce engine in the box. And besides, they never tooled Pratt & Whitney engines for their 747-400 kit so I think the engine type will match the 1:1 thing. And incredible news is that the decal sheet is designed by Daco/Skyline. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tigerviper Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 The kit I bought is the Lufthansa kit from Revell. The Ed Force One kit willalso be a rebox off that kit with new decals. But designed by daco. I found some resin engines from Braz models and just wondered if I could use aftermarket engines on the kit. I bought resin engines for the previous ed force one liverys.
