Default Boeing 727-1 by AV400

Excuse the yellow/greenish color...due to my lighting here. The model is very yellow.

It's ok but the nose should be a little pointier.

Also, they should have made it with the grey redome and black nose since the orange radome was extremely rare.

Tail isn't that good either. In fact it really looks like a reduced IF200, with all its flaws.

It is just that, a copied model with all the original's flaws, and usually more!

On the photos of N7003U I can clearly identify United, Eastern, Lufthansa, American, TWA and TAA, but is Ansett-ANA the 7th logo? I can't make it out.

However, N7003U had a different livery and - based on what I can see - perhaps different launch customer logos. In the roll-out photos on N7001U you provided in a later post it looks like there are eight logos on the nose.

Does anyone have better photos of the nose of N7001U, or actually received the model yet?
