Tophe would build it just like that of course.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

There is no interior at all, not even the basic approximation of one so that will be something i'll have to knock up.


That'll be the three piece suite and chaise lounge then, will it?  ;D ;)

chaise longue please Kit.  ;)

Whether or not the spelling is accurate, the thought certainly is! The Amiot certainly looks like an Edwardian conservatory that had unexpectedly taken wings and flown away.  Potted palms and a brace of aspidistras around the chaise longue/ long chair/ lounging couch would be appropriate.  You could even paint it up as an Air Montmartre avion  of the belle epoque.......a diorama with an art deco terminal , Toulouse Lautrec posters on the walls, an absinthe-sodden derelict slumped in a corner......................................................................sorry, carried away,  I'll retire back to my corner and gibber incomprehensibly.

Ah, so you are claiming the role of the Absynthe sodden personage. I do like your thoughts though, wherever they have come from.  :thumbsup: :wacko:

Me?, absinthe? No most assuredly not!!!............ but if the alcohol of choice was Ardbeg, Highland Park, Laphroaig or similar.......well, maybe!

An avion of the Belle Epoque would be at an Art Nouveau terminal,
Art Deco (a term invented in the 1960s) is later.

I was thinking more a cast iron outdoor setting and some potted begonias - Downtown Abbey with wings...

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.
