Which means the AG600 has spent a year on ground trials.

Just to clarify, the pics and the article are not from the same source. Sorry, I should have made that clear. The article had no pics, so I put two on from a Google image search, chosen mostly because they were the right size.

Is that a Red Arrow peeking out from behind it's nose ?

Front end looks a bit of an after thought to me. Almost as though it was designed by a different team to that which designed the back end and the wings ?

Most of the thing is so like a Shin-Meiwa that it's hard to believe they weren't at least consultants on the project. The nose looks like somebody crossed a Be-200 with a Be-40 Albatross and grafted it on.

We'll have one of them in 1/72 please Trumpeter.

...and then three years later, we'll have one with the same number of prop blades on each engine please....

For those with a couple of hundred quid to spare

It's a bargain, given that you could sleep on the wing once it's built, or use it as a workbench.

Hmm, I've got a 1/72 vacuform of the Mars, it's not that big ------

Now the Hughes HK-1 in 1/72 ------   that's big

Or keep all your other models inside it................

Just thinking that Tophe would love the Boeing 320... 


and the Russian 8X8 amphib looks very Joe-90, don'tchathink?

I was thinking "meh, A Model, it'll be crap" and then I read the words saying 'this is too big to send by post' and I wanted one really badly.
I think I have a problem...

Yeah I did, it's an Xian Y-20. From what I've read and can see of it, it's a development of the Il-76 Candid
