Default Aeroclassics QANTAS 707

Does anyone know which livery the QANTAS will be in? Am hoping it is the ochre and red which was the same as the 747 delivery colors.

I hope Andrew will use his new B707-138 mould to do both Qantas delivery livery and the last (not the latest) livery.

Does Qantas applied the latest livery on B707-138?

For the last livery on B707-138(B), reg# N707JT is fine.

Am I talking about two moulds? Whatever!

Andrew - yet another sale - you ARE my hero! First saw that livery when I was in Nassau of all places - flight was on approach to airport, and thought it was the oddest thing that an Australian plane coming into the Bahamas; didn't know they had that odd round-the-world routing which included Bermuda, Mexico and Tahiti!

Funniest color name is "puce".

Anyways---ooh, QF o/c, must buy. And it's a 707 to boot.

Travolta's 707 isn't in a 100% correct livery (asides from reg number etc). The belly is painted grey, instead of bare metal. (Hard to strip and polish a 39-year-old belly) Of course, could lead to easy variants--bare belly with "authentic" QF registry, and Travolta's..

It looks nice, but I would have loved to have seen Gemini do it...
I tend to prefer their 707 mould....


(thus throwing Mr. Klein into a head-scratching dilema... how to defend his model while remaining a shill for the fellas at GJ....hmmmm....)

That's because you are a clueless moron Walter as 99.9% of your posts prove. The AC 707 mould is the best there is on the market.

Ochre - description used by QF PR at the time 747 was delivered - and updated livery.............not my definition.
