A400M model

I got the following link to a A400M model via a collegue.

http://www.air-actualites.com/papercraft-a400m.pdf

the model is 1:76 scale or something in that neighbourhood. At first sight it looks rather good, just not very round sometimes.

and lots of memory-eating photos. I think a lot of those edges can be burnished out for a rounder appearance

Yep, I deleted the photo pages then saved the pdf. It went from around 67MB to around 23MB.

Neat looking aircraft.

It looks like there are 'optional' formers, but not enough. And I don't see them in the instructions, except one of them in the fuselage.

So which one is you Herky ? I wouldn't want to jump out of that loading door.



Bristol Freighter, eh? Now there's an idea for a model.
Nah ... Bruno will throw a wobbly ... it's got fixed undercarriage.
