Sukhoi Gulfstream S-21 looks amazing. Sign me up for the test build.

We definitely need a 727!!! The United "Friendship" scheme appeals to me.

You should know there are already free 1/100 models of the Yak-42 and Tu-154 out there (I think at Paper Replika). But you like 'em bigger so....

The best 727s I know are either in printed kits or too small....as for the HS Trident, the model I know is too small!!!

Not sure which one is the "friendship" scheme. Somebody will have to provide pictures. This is the one that inspired me to do the 727 though:

Which happens to be the one that Pima has in their boneyard.

And a quick perusal of Google nets me:
Prototype
Bright Yellow
I like this ones colors too for some reason
This must be the friendship scheme
I like this one too.

Still looking for a NASA and USCG version.


Airliners are just like potato chips. You just can't stop at one...

C-22

AFAIK, no 727 in NASA livery. You might consider THIS, tho....

I agree murphyaa, airliners are like chips! Possibly you could consider this?

That's not a 727 though.

The Zero G one did enter my mind, but I wasn't sure if it was NASAish enough.
