Hi Guys

Brian you need to sort out the nose as it looks odd to me :redface:

Sorry

Looks good in shots otherwise but nose looks a bit too rounded an bulbous to me.

Rick (fussy git)

Rick,

It's probably a bit more bulbose than most people realise..

HI Brian

Point taken.

is the nose different on the 125 ?.

& does the Dominie not have the bubble roof like the 125 & Viscount have ?.

I can't put my finger on whats missing, looks great anyway
& great photo there

Regards
Rick

That looks like a different nose cone to the 125 and even the Dominie in it's earliest form.......could have been changed given the long use it has had.

Hard to tell just from pics especially that livery as it is a shape distorting livery.

Rick,

Yes the canopy are is of the same type as the Viscount not so pronounced though. Not too sure but I think the nose on the Dom is an 'adjustment' for the radar used in the various training programs.

I agree Garry, and this rather confirms it

Much more slope down from the screen to the nose whereas the "new" Dominie is flat.
