I wanted to build a 727-100 and had a few options
I ended up going with the Airfix -200 with -100 OzMods conversion to build a -22QC . I have decals for a New Zealand Air Force aircraft from Old Models Decal in NZ.
I started with the wings by removing the lump that is supposed to be a wing fence on the trailing edge of the wing and adding a new fence from card in the correct position on the leading edge. there was some rescribing as well.
The OzMods parts were assembled and filled. The rear entry door opening was blanked with card as the kit door was too wide
The wings and tail cone were then attached to the fuselage
I found some old after market engines in the stash and decided to use them. The stub wings were a bit damaged so I tried to tidy them up a bit before installing. The gear legs were also attached
The fuselage the engines were primed
And some seam issues were sorted
It now stands with a base coat of FS16440 and ready to be masked for the other colours
