Airbus A330-300 Fiji Airways

Hi all,


I completed this model a couple of months ago and completely missed sharing it on here. This is Bkensky's Airbus A330-300 DQ-FJW in Fiji Airways colours, with scratchbuilt additions of moving rudder and elevators, more detailed landing gear and slats and flaps, and corrections to the window positions specific to this aircraft. I came across this model in a video of a build by the famous Hermercraft and liked the look of the tail, so put it together.


It did require modifications to the wing box (couldn't get the stubs to fit into the cutout) and lengthening the fuselage as I think the model is actually an A330-200 and about ten windows of length need to be inserted. I sort of wish I'd cut the cockpit windows and added some interior but actually the designer has made a very convincing depiction of what you'd see looking in, so I'm fine with not doing that.
