En fait, je suis surtout un maquettiste nostalgique qui prend beaucoup de plaisir à retrouver ces madeleines de Proust après y avoir longtemps résisté. Très bien vu cher Sonny Tuckson 🤠 Mais la photo de John Belushi dans 1941 correspondait mieux au côté aéronautique.

Oui, car c'est dans ce monde que j'ai débuté ma carrière, au milieu des F-16 à Beauvechain 🙂 (si tu as du temps, ou envie, tu peux me retrouver sur FB). Dans quel coin vis-tu ?

Je suis dans le Sud de la France. J'ai grandi dans l'axe d'atterrissage de la base D'Istres. J'ai donc essayé de me rapprocher des Mirages que je voyais passer mais je ne suis malheureusement pas allé jusqu'au bout du processus de recrutement pilote. C'est donc sur des hélices civiles qus je me suis rabattu. Les Têtes Brûlées m'ont aussi beaucoup marqué dans mon enfance 🙂
Je ne suis pas sur Facebook, Scalemates est mon seul réseau social avec LinkedIn. Sinon, toujours dans l'aéronautique? Et trouves-tu assez de temps pour le maquettisme?

Test fitting, decent fit so far in the process. Some plasticard needed for the wings

Thanks Gorby! This is my second vacu kit build and this time it feels a little bit more straight forward…
My experience so far with vacu kits is that you have to spend a good amount of time on fitting, sanding and putty work to get a nice base for paint and finishing. Also spending quite some time reviewing old photos to get a good picture of the details. This as there is a fair amount of scratch work to get a decent build.

You're a brave man, indeed! I will follow this thread with pleasure, for sure.

Nice, Nice 👍👍, lalways wanted to see a vacform build, Do you have to make up other parts to add on ??
Thanks for upload 😃👍

Thanks Mr D for your comments.
There will certainly be scratch build involved, mainly regarding the details as it looks for now. Otherwise I will raid my spare part stash first in order to save time and frustration.
If you are intrested in vac kits you can also have a look at my first vac kit:

Thanks 👍👍 great, will do , l have an intest...as l enjoy making parts, lve had to do it few times, when parts lost or broken or details missed of kit...even canopy once 🤣.
Will check out the XP-67

@Mr D - yes you will need some good scissors as a start😅, for the fine tuning of the parts I normally use saw razor blades and sanding paper of variuos grits. Regarding glue I use "normal" Tamyia Extra Thin, the vacu kit plastic is often quite soft and melts easily.

@Skyhiker - Happy to hear that your following with great intrest. Usually the building pace goes down during the sommer period as I have been reminded that we have a garden that also need some TLC…😂
Nevertheless, yes there is planning and ordning of parts going on behind the scenes. Cockpit need to be done, rescribing the full kit, alignment of wheels as the mold was totally off-set. Drill out all machine guns for after market parts etc.
The main work will be to prepare the plane for NMF look also including some aluminum dope areas. Will try AK's metal paints this time. Stay tuned!

Luckily the old Russian saying applies to Sweden too - "we have only 10 months of winter, but all the rest is summer!" 😄

Good luck with Broplan! I keep my fingers crossed, I'll watch. Let there be enough motivation to complete this monster!

I'm in, being Broplan fan too 👍 Would love to buy Eurolot's 42-200 variant.
The cockpit looks great 👍

Following. Never built a Broplan kit (or any other vacform for that matter), but they have some unique subjects. I suppose the entire interior is scratchbuild? Pretty impressive!

Thats a lot of seats... but aren't they suppose to be Blue? Getting the decals from Arctic?

These images are 3-4 weeks old sorry. The model is basically completed (very close) today. I'll keep updating the pics here until they're up to date

Now that's a heroic act indeed! Considering the quality of the kit, this is an absolutely amazing result! I completely missed finishing it, but luckily I just happened to come across this project.
Bravo Chris! You have my deepest respect! 👏👏👏

Chris, Terrific work finishing this beasty! Lovely results. I finally returned from my overseas travel and will check on the DHC-8 for you. Kind regards, Dutch
