Airfix Rotodyne question

[The Wooksta!]

I think the Airfix one was first out.  The Frog one was the one to have.  I've only ever seen one and the seller wanted £250 for it.  And that was in 1995...

[PR19_Kit]

I've NEVER seen a FROG one, either built or in kit form.

I am following a build of this kit on Britmodeller. The builder is using the interior of a railway coach for the interior, including passengers.

The windows are relatively large so something might be visible through them.

Please tell me that it's a really old railway coach, divided into four-seater compartments by panelled oak and art-nouveau etched glass, with leather buttoned seats and cast-iron overhead rack brackets...

Unfortunately not, but nothing to stop you from doing that as there are kits of that type of interior available.

With First, Second and Third class ?

And a sleeper section, of course...

Might be more appropriate for the Revell one actually, since a) it's got a removeable side so you can actually see it, and b) it's about 1/78th scale, which is closer to 1/76th HO/OO than 1/72nd is.

And mirrors in the centre of each compartment wall, and suitable travel destination posters either side.

But in the case of a 'dyne they'd be for Paris or Brussels or Amsterdam of course.   

[The Wooksta!]

I found the wreck of my Luftwaffe one yesterday. No props or blades and the undercarriage is smashed.

[Gondor]

Apparantly the item the person is using is this set of seats.

Gondor

[Nick]

Those seats would work well in a Rotodyne packed with businessmen doing the JFK - New York Central run. Pan-Am, of course.

This reminds me of the horse drawn "Dandy car" that operated  between \drumburgh junction and Port Carlisle    https://collection.sciencemuseumgroup.org.uk/objects/co207792/dandy-car-north-british-railway-railway-carriage  Three classes.....|First class inside soft seats, second class inside hard seats, third class sit outside and get soaked when it rained...............I wonder, what would be the rotodyne equivalents?

The same, of course...
One shilling deposit per set on goggles and leather flying helmets for third class, refundable on them being returned undamaged at the end of the flight.

Re the Dandy Car, jeez, it wouldn't have killed them to at least extend the roof over the third class seats, would it?
