Daco Skyline produced a fresh run of their outstanding 1/144 scale Boeing 737-300, 737-400 and 737-500 kits, and re-released them with high quality decals (the earlier releases had no decal included). These kits are highly detailed, and are the most accurate kits of these aircraft available.
- SKY144-03B Boeing 737-300, Western Pacific ‘The Simpsons’

- SKY144-04B Boeing 737-400, Brussels Airlines

- SKY144-05B Boeing 737-500, Air Baltic ‘Painted Ladies’

Each kit includes a highly detailed decal, however Daco Skyline’s etch brass detail frets are not included. Also, the decal provided in the Air Baltic 737-500 is not quite as illustrated on the kit box.

older releases:
releases from Roden, FRsin, and to lesser extent Zvezda, I am being more selective which Welsh releases I stock. Too many Viscounts, Britannias, Comets, Il.18s, Il.62s, Tu154, Constellations, Boeing 720s, DC-8’s and Caravelles went unsold when injection moulded (easier to build, cheaper) were announced and hit the market. Welsh does make excellent kits, and for years Densil and his team have filled the many gaps.

astern Express Tristar kits yesterday, I remembered that I had not posted anything about the recently released Vintage Flyer Tristar decals. So, let’s fix that.


he Eastern Express Tristar is widely believed to have been patterned from the famous 1/144 scale Otaki Tristar kit, which is accepted as the most accurate injection moulded styrene plastic 1/144 scale L.1011 kit ever made. It is not, however, a direct copy, and the parts breakdown (for example the rear fuselage is provided as separate parts) is different. It lacks locating pins for mating the fuselage halves, wing halves and stab halves, making assembly a little more challenging.
woMikes has resumed resin parts production, and at our request, has reintroduced the 707 nose. My first new batch will be here next week.
