A Classic Giant amongst the modern Giants 1/200 that is!!

virginflyer98 · 12-16-2002, 03:46 PM

Hi Guy's,

Take a look at my Blackburn Beverley in 1/200 scale with a selection of my 1/200 modern day giants.

I paid £325.00 for the Bev' a couple of years ago...she's a one off and when I was a lad remember her coming to RAF Bicester for scrapping back in the late 60's along with about 11 more if I remember correctly.

This is a model of that aircraft I used to play on!! Complete with all that 60's graffiti...they carried!!

Enjoy.

Cheers,

Dave.

I always liked the idea of a Court Line full livery Beverly... as they were contemplating at one time..to fly RB.211 engines out to their Tristar fleet as need be. Never materialized.

Here's some of mine. Dave - how do you get such a fine, in focus shot?

Where can I obtain this model (Virgin A380) apart from EBay please?

Thanks!

I also purchased mine from Ming-Lee from a listing on Ebay. They have super-quick turnaround on orders, I bought on Tuesday had the model in my hands (I live in Michigan) Saturday.
