Default Re: April Arrivals 1

The EY A332 is a very old RS release pretty much like the QR old livery A332 which I posted pics of last month.

Seeing that RS only produce models when they receive an airline order, it appears that this model was made for EY when they first got the A332 and this model represents the early EY livery which seems to be paler than the current livery which shows the gold dust color very prominently. I think the fuselage initially was a metallic off-white as opposed to the quite prominent dusty gold we see currently. Here are a few old pics I found:





This model took me almost a year to find and for $18 I'm not complaining. It came w/o gears but I added HG gears.

The Dragonair A333 does have spinning engines.
