1/72`` Airfix Boeing E-3D Sentry AEW.1 ZH102

As the Royal Air Force retired the iconic Boeing E-3D Sentry on the 5th of August(today) I have decided this kit deserves my full attention.
That being said I need to 1 buy the styrene and 2 have some practice creating an interior on the Airfix Lancaster before I attempt this.
This aircraft was introduced in 1991, my year of birth so I literally grew up with her.

So in recent events the RAF have sold 2 to Chili, sent 1 to the USAF as there Rivit Joint trainer and scrapped the rest only leaving some panels for tags and a radar dish for the patheticly ran Cosford RAF Museum.
Not even a cockpit section was saved!

My story behind this was to have ZH102 along with the Nimrod R.1 XV249 based out of RAF Waddington with all crew based inside what the Red Arrows now use as their Hanger but its annoyed me so much I have changed my mind.
102 and 249 will now operate out of RAF Fairford in one of the 4 newly constructed Hangers as can be seen in the background on any RIAT YouTube video since 2022.
