Bob, you & the guys at PAD are absolute stars! With the AFG/HJG series seemingly in limbo I'd despaired of ever seeing the 100 series, but the prospect of one from you guys is a dream come true! :excited:

Can't wait to see the 100 series Bob, she looks great in BAe house colours ;)

Glad to see someone doing a fresh 146 model, is the 146 not the best selling British jet airliner? :)

I should have known you'd the exact number Garry :lol:

Is that much more than the 1-11?

The 146 is a bit of a cheat really as only 221 BAe 146's were built.. the remainder (166) being Avro RJ's so.. the One-Eleven wins in my book :lol: Still.. nothing beats the Viscount :rock:

Right.. move the goal posts if you will :lol:

Forgive me but I've never considered either the Dove or Islander as 'Airliners' ;)

1-11 was by far the better airframe.

If the re-engining had gone ahead it would have carried a heavier payload further and 60 knots faster whilst burning less fuel. BAe put every obstacle in its way coz it would have blown holes in 146 sales.
