After work tonight I tuned into Foyle's War and cut plastic at the dining table popping out briefly to the studio to airbrush a coat of black, grey then a silvery grey. A quick search through the box marked "US decals" for some suitable markings et voila ! Boeing Model 908-909
A few more little details ( FOD cover for example) and a coat of something satin and we're done.

Wow is that one sharp, clean build and the decal/marking scheme are very eye-catching!
Good to see another "Foyle's War" fan!

Damn that looks good!
As for Foyle's war…I fell asleep watching Britain's Greatest Machines before it...

I love your model, completed!
Do you have a F-16 at the same scale, to compare? (and fully appreciate the changes)
