Some of you know I'm building an Avro Atlantic on the 'other forum', but the main gist of the project was to do a 'wide-body' variant 'cause someone else had already built a 'standard' Atlantic, (but in the end I decided to build one too). I have just in the last few days picked up the kit I will be using as a donor to do this build, a 1/72 Boeing 767.
The backstory is that Avro, much along the lines of the their Tudor, went a bit conservative with the size of the original fuselage diameter, and realized later that it should have been much bigger. So after having Avro Canada build all the aircraft for the RAF needed (because they were booked solid with Vulcan orders at the time) a new design was proposed and accepted. It would use the fully developed wing of the Vulcan B.2 but with new inner wing to house more powerful engines, and turbofans to boot.
Here's a couple of pics of the 'standard' Atlantic as far as I've got with the build, although I have done a bit more to the rear fuselage than what these photos show. Bottom pic shows how I'm converting the Vulcan B.2 wing back to Vulcan B.1a wing, I'm using this wing because I had been in contact with a guy who was involved with the RW project and he told me had the Atlantic gone into production, it would have had this wing.
The model is in 1/72 scale.
