Is there any interest in a Vickers VC10?

I don't wanna get too caught up in research if there isn't any interest.

I'm hoping to get away from the modern, boring "pointed tube with wings" airliners.

I've designed a few modern airliner models, and it's getting to the point where all I need to do is change the windows on an existing Boeing model and call it an Airbus, and nobody would be able to tell.

Thats a nice looking plane, British manufactured too right?

I'm glad you thought about it!!!!!!!

It's one of my favourite airliners. I'll be very very happy to buy it.

Yes, that would be a great addition to the fleet. Even came in camo

totally agree i struggle to tell one boeing or one airbus from another.the vc10 was a classic jetliner along with the dc8 and b707.would certainly buy these aircraft

I like this special livery on the VC10. Looks decorative.
