End of a long trip to Heathrow



Touchdown



Time to board and go home

That's an interesting livery for a 707. I think it suits it very nicely

[Ian Warren]

CLF , I'm guessing Captain Sims Legendary 707 , this would be interesting to see in the old ANZ/Teal livery of the same period ( mid 1960's ) used on the DC-8s . maybe a new project .

I think The Air NZ Livery is made for that plane.......Time Travel Anyone?

Do the stairs come with the plane, I've wanted stairs for a while

[Court Line flyer]

Yes, this is the Captain Sim B707, which I love except for the lack of wing flex...not that the B707 had much anyhow.

The stairs are parts of Aerosoft's AES addon, which work well with rear door opening on the port side of the B707...why most models only have the forward passenger door opening baffles me!

My current work in progress is the Captain Sim B757-200 in the Pacific Wave livery...another excellent model with LOTS of doors to play with!

Meanwhile, here's some non-NZ shots of other B707's I've painted...





...I'm huge fan of the defunct Court Line and operate my own Court Line VA so here's their old One Eleven G-AZEC. I was wondering if the Pacific Wave would work on the One Eleven?


...and Court Line VA's current scheme on the One Eleven and B707

[Ian Warren]

Great set of paints /skins ... mmm BAC111 , Gorgeous model by David Maltby , was declined for NZ operations due to its lack in short field stoppin power along with many other designs ... Boeing had the answer with the 737 , the 707 ...... well , yeah very kiwi connected with our QANTAS OZ friends .

Accidently missed this topic CLF- love the livery. At first I was confused at whether it was meant to be a 74 or 77, as that simple Boeing nose structure hasn't changed in decades... but then looked at the engine sizes and realised my mistake!

Would love to see a real 707 in the flesh. Bet those old Pratt & Whitney's sound awesome
