Default 1/100 pcm b.a 733 and b/cal 707 mahogany

picked up these 2 off airspotters this week, at a really silly price. first a resin SNAP FIT b.a landor 737-300. second a mahogany (my first) b/caledonian 707. both great models to me. only slight flaw on b.a is cockpit windows are slightly different.















now the b/cal 707. its mahogany, but it doesn't look it!















i now have 5 1/00 models now.

Very nice Robert. The 737 looks really cool, but for me, that 'Cally' 707 looks terrific. I've never seen these models up close and for real. I have toyed with the idea of the Olympic 707, it looks a stunner.

That 737 mold is really nice and the cockpit is fine too. The eyebrows could have been slightly bigger but thats about it.
