Hello again,

after the DC-9` s, my next model is the Swearingen Metro III from the swiss CROSSAIR.
Have a look:

I like Commuters and the Swearingen fits excellent to my old Saab Safir from Whv

I would like to see a SABENA, perhaps one day....:rolleyes:

Very nice build Wanni. You did a great job installing the clear windows. 1/50, did you have any problems resizing the orginal?

Thanks,
Gary

Hi Garry and thank you :) ,

no, it is not difficult to enlarge the model.
I extracted the pdf file, scaled it up to 144% and with copy&paste arranged the parts nearly 1:1 on two pages.
The only problem is the original Bitmap Graphic, it`s screened.
But 1:50 is just the edge of scaling up, a 1:33 is very bad looking (second pic: a try to enlarge to 1:33)

Great, thanks for the tip. I might give it a try. I have purchase this same model, it's in the build pile.
