1/72 Antonov An-12BK Cub - Roden kit

Hi all. Just a couple of pics of a build recently completed. Posted on a couple of modelling forums so apologies for any duplication, but as it's a type not often built I thought it may be of interest. Thanks https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/49845996683_cb698efd1e_c.jpg 20200502_174029 by bryn ro...

EgyptAir A300

As I don't have a scanner I thought I'd try and see what taking a photo of a photo looks like. Any idea when these A300s were used on the route to Heathrow? I hope it's of interest. https://farm2.staticflickr.com/1540/25806808652_3dd0930138_c.jpg Untitled by bryn robinson , on Flickr

Re: Holiday destinations for plane fans - a question.

Another vote for Zakynthos (Zante), I believe Kalamaki is the resort closest to the airport. When I last went a few years back there was the odd military a/c as well (C-27 & T-6). HTH FF This was shot from our hotel balcony (2008) http://images116.fotki.com/v107/photos/8/2683498/11957115/Kalimak...
