AIR FRANCE 340

Thank you Rui for these photos.

At last, you have your Portuguese Air Force Noratlas ….
These airport vehicles are very nice.
The prototype of the Super Constellation is gorgeous.
I love everything.

I have not been to London for twelve years, my first visit will be to ARD ( without my wife).

Jean Pierre.

We should meet, that would be nice!

ok, fellas, finished adding the remaining pictures, the Corgi Vulcan, the new Oxford Raf Anson, the Inflight Viasa Dc8 and Hercules, the Western breguets...

one word regarding the new GJ L-188...GORGEOUS! I was quite surprised with the mould, and finishing details. the GJ website photos dont make it justice, looking forward to some "obscure" airlines, GJ, not just the usual US liveries...since the new WM have stopped releasing these, the GJ is a great model to carry on...Congratulations !

Always a pleasure to share these with you here...again, hope you find that little something you have been looking for, and hopefully, see you all again next month, ARD,the place to be !

ARD OCTOBER VISIT...PICS!

Bealine

A splendid selection of photographs as always Rui. That Anson is nicely done the 'old flying greenhouse' and the Vulcan looks as though it should have some figures running towards those stairs. The Electra does look very good and I hope Gemini don't stick to US Carriers. I wouldn't mind a delivery KLM.

Retroguy

Glad you liked them!
Yes, KLM would be great, but also those South American birds too...they wont venture im sure into something like that....

Graham Bridges

The SAS Convair liner is very nice. Will order one tomorrow. And those tugs look very pretty as well.

Retroguy

glad you liked them Graham ! They will look nice in your Northside...

....nice cross-section of models there Rui, interesting to see that Smallworld Pan AM B742 with the experimental livery (billboard titles with cheatline below the window line)....

....I have to say my favourite is the SAS (classic livery) DC-10 ......is very nice...... as well as the Viasa DC-8 ........love the old liveries ......

Some great models in there. Thanks, as always for the pictures. I will be making a flying visit to ARD at the end of the month and might just have enough room in my luggage for a couple of those Route Master buses.

You could even carry them in your pockets, save some space for some models instead!
big shipment coming around that time, so you should be lucky as well, and get a first glimpse at new models !!!!!Say "HI" to the crew there for me
