Gents,
Ok, so Stephen Barstow created a wonderful Avro 504K, and we've had a repaint to match the Old Rhinebeck example.
But...
I need another repaint so when I post my pending article on the early history of Qantas airways. Any takers or helpful teachers?
I know that there is a paintkit in Stephen's model but I'm confused as to how reapaint using it. I was/am hoping somebody out there has the time and skill to knock off the job.
Appreciation goes without saying...
Qantas took delivery of its first aircraft, an Avro 504K, registration G-AUBG, in January 1921. It was assembled in Sydney by Australian Aircraft and Engineering Company, agents for the AV Roe Company in England.
The Avro, carrying two passengers in an open cockpit behind the pilot, was used with the BE2E for joy rides and air taxi services while promoting the advantages of air transport to thousands of potential customers.
In its final years of service the Avro was used mainly for flying instruction and route familiarisation. It was sold to a Victorian businessman in November 1926.
