discussion Airfix 1/144 Boeing 737

[The Migrant]

The old Airfix kit with Bra.Z engine upgrades (with the later wide pylons). Kit was re-scribed and several small details added, and the swooshy paint scheme was masked and airbrushed. I made custom decals for the logos and lettering. Full build article is in the latest (Dec 2014) issue of Airfix Model World.

Thanks Tony. All things considered, the mouldings weren't too bad; a bit of flash here and there, nothing major. One omission from older boxings is that Airfix no longer supply clear parts for the fuselage windows, they're just holes. I chose to fill them and use decals.

Cracking build Mike, as I type I'm back again aboard the Ryanair 737 / 800 ....In my favorite seat, row 29...window seat, just behind the wing, watching the workings......Sad or what??

Top work.
