Hello everyone,

It's been pretty quiet at Freightdog since last Telford, although I am starting to find the time (and enthusiasm) to get on with Telford preparations. Recently I uncovered my remaining stock of half a dozen 1/144 Multi-Role VC10 conversions, which to my surprise sold quickly. It got me thinking that now there are decent 1/144 kits of the 748 and 1-11 from Mark.I Models, would anyone be interested in conversions for these? There are a few nice idea's The Air Staff and AEW? Or anything else in 1/144 for that matter, as the scale lends itself to larger subjects that would be prohibitive in 1/72.

I do enjoy 144 for some larger subjects.

Might be of limited interest, but some of the more recent jet firefighting aircraft that have replaced the old piston types have some interesting belly tanks and other features.  DC-10, 737, 146, etc. 

Yeah, I can see the utility of some conversions in that scale.  Even for smaller aircraft, like jet fighters, 1/144 is great if you don't have a lot of shelf area.

BAC 1-11 stuff could interest me as I have already done an AEW conversion some years ago, I also have another kit or two in the stash as well.

Sounds great Colin! 144 is great for whif.

The BAe 146 is a 1/144 kit from Revell. Conversion ideas...

New engines, refuelling probe, fire retardant tank, rear ramp, side door, side loading ramp with Rover 800!
