B737-200C Finnair Cargo

Postby RayS » Wed Feb 28, 2018 7:12 pm

I always thought that Finnair was a McDonnell Douglas shop up until recently when it switched to Airbus.

Imagine my surprise when I found out they operated a B737.

Image

So I am having a crack at this over at the BM B737 Group Build

Image

Image

It goes together pretty quickly

Image

Image

Image

I even rescribed most of it only to have my efforts buried under a few layers of paint

Image

Image

I am using a set of Braz engines, but it turns out I need the ADV versions

Image

So out with a razor saw for some renovation work

Image

Image

Image

Still a little work on them and then its time for some primer.

Cheers guys, decided to use the kit engines after I misplaced the reverser fins on the second engine and busted one of the fins on the one I already added the fins on.

As you can see they need some modding to ADV engines.

Wow, doing new engines, I always thought they were a little underscale, but a man of you bore and stroke will do a fantastic job on those Ray, can't wait to see how you turn them into a great representation of P&W's
