Here is my Information/Contrails 1:144th QantasLink Boeing 717-200. Just marginally better than the Gremlin 1:72 range of resin kits, it was not exactly a joy to build.





I plan to, in time, complete another one of these in the stunning Impulse "Blue Cockatoo" scheme.

Good work Ray.. Douglas got them right hey?..

Yet another cracker. Well done mate

Oh...nicely done Ray.

Indeed Douglas did a top job on that jetliner.

A nice build of a difficult kit - I know, I have one.

With those RR Conways powering it, it should be good for Mach 1.2 I reckon - the mini-Concorde (:>) !!

I think they wish they were Conways.. Sadly they ain't,RR BR715's, same compressor section as the IAEV2500 A320 Airbus engine they powers the Jetstar and Tiger A320 fleet..

They are a good engine , you don't see the bonnet up much .........if at all on these aircraft . A bit like the CFM's on the 737 very reliable engines . And Ed they go really well , just like the old DC-9 .

Ahhh... too subtle for you... Ray will get it..... they are a little overscale in the kit.

Yeah sorry bit slow on the uptake Ed... Now see what your talking about.
