This is a single seater as opposed to the TR. and Tr.9 in the other post

As an extra, here's a little Fokker in 1/144 scale

and a slightly more modern airliner

Air Libya anyone?

Hey Paul,
Did you notice that one of the other Spitfire T-Birds that Ed posted looked a little like Steve the Spitfire???

Love the different NASA schemes.....they look great on the big jets including Convair 990s, 737s, 747s, 757s, KC-135s,
DC-8s, DC-9s, C-141s etc

You may well be surprised to know that there is indeed a path to a 1/48 model (of the TR.9 version at least ..........)

http://www.modelingmadness.com/review/a ... /reyt9.htm

This review is rather kinder than some I have read. This is one for the patient and experienced modeller. It's still available from Hannants

http://www.hannants.co.uk/product/BRIG4801

and probably other places. It doesn't come with civilian decals but if you have the AZ ones it should be possible to upscale them and print them on an Alps printer or similar machine.

If you are really into self-flagellation a TR.8 conversion from the Brigade conversion is possible too.
