French short-run injection-moulded kit of this 1950s double-decker airliner. Not an easy kit with pretty basic mouldings and lots of flash etc., but the basic shapes were OK.

Very nice! I've looked at that kit before but never jumped on it. One of these days. Again, excellent build.

Thanks for the kind comment, Chris.

I checked out the link to your own builds – some really nice work there. Is that F-8 the 1/48 Hasegawa kit?

Wow, you built a really beautiful model out of a rare kit there.  I didnt even know this plane ever existed.

Thanks Allan. I'd never heard of this aircraft either until I came across the kit, but it was so typically French I just had to build it.

Nice model!

I've always like this airplane.  What a Constellation would look like if it ate a whale.  I seem to remember they loaded cars in the back so people had something to drive when they got to the destination.

sorry, didn't realize you replied and I haven't been around much lately. It is the Revell 1/48 kit. I got the decals just because of the swirl nose.
