Here are some photos of an Air France SE-161 Languedoc.
The kit is from Cloudbreak Models and it is an exceptionally easy build.

Very well done , Jay !

It's great to see these old aircraft on the forum.
The Languedoc was very elegant, something like a big DH 91 Albatross.

The F-BCUS was the 49 th aircraft produced and was one of the very last received by AF in 1948.
Having flown 4600 h it was sold to Aviacion y Comercio (Aviaco) in 1956.
It became EC-AMH and was finally retired from service in 1961, with more than 10200 h.

Cannot be compared to the longevity of a DC 3 or DC 4 but it was not that bad … and the Viscount was there …

I look forward to seeing your next model.

Jean Pierre.

Nice bird.
Maybe we can have a seperate 1/200 forum for older planes, say pre 1970? so they don't get lost in all the modern stuff?

Not sure …
It's good to show everyone that commercial aviation did not start with the B 747.

Just my thought …

No matey,

Just here is fine to post all 1:200 and what a beauty this is. Looks like JP steered you in the right direction. Great work

Mystère

Very nice ! As chances to see this from a regular brand at a reasonable price are almost nil, I'll probably get one of those kits.

The kit is available from Wojtek Benzinski and it is very high quality and easy to build.

Very nice model, I never saw a real one , a bit before my time. I have some nice images of them at LAP North side though.
