Tbis reminds me years ago when i used to go out drinking with my buddies, the weekend that concorde was axed we were in a pub and there was a middle aged lady sitting down with an empty bottle of wine for company and make up running down her face. Turns out she was an air hostess for concorde and was drowning her sorrows. Sad times

I've now got all the PE for the engines done.

Yes they do Tony, so they will go on after the wheels have been painted.

Not done much to this one lately, but I've got the engines painted.

Just caught up without this one Ian and my I say wow
The detail you have on this is amazing and such scale in the detail aswell
I only saw one Concorde take off from Heathrow many years ago and yes she was very loud
They have a Concorde at east fortune and going on board she's very tight even for a 6ft guy like myself.
Loving this and will stay to see the end

Regards

Robert

I remember Concorde landing in NZ after it lost part of its rudder enroute to Sydney...

Great work so far Ian. Lots of little detail points in this one, looking A+

Looks great Ian, no issues with conforming to the curves on the tail decal?

Not really Joe, they are in 3 parts, one goes over the bump and the others 1 above and below. The decals are very good anyway nice and thin and all in register and conform very well.
