Re: WIP: Justflight Caravelle
Meanwhile, back in the room (apologies for my part in that), I think someone mentioned a Caravelle. Pretty please it doesn't have/need a paintkit designed by a lunatic? Thanks very much in advance while I tear my hair out on this connie paintjob that I kinda wish I had never started

Re: WIP: Justflight Caravelle
Is that true? The nose sections do look similar, but were they actually made by D.H for Sud Aviation / license-built in France, based on D.H.'s Comet design?
Re: WIP: Justflight Caravelle
Don't forget A321 = Bendy bus ...
Trident ...pretty ? Not after 12 yrs operating them .. leads on to Comet's nose licenced to Sud for the Caravelle . And Caravelle's engine pylons licenced to DH for the Trident [ plaque on each pylon saying so ] .

I have to agree - I don't think the Trident was a particularly attractive plane. Not ugly of course, but not pretty either. Thanks for the info on the Comet nose and Caravelle engine pylons.

Thanks to Dave F, and my apologies to Paul K. I had missed Paul's question altogether. Interesting snippet about the Trident engine pylons, too.
