Comb that awesome pilots tache and don your Ray-Bans, the VC10 returns! The awesome VC10 ended its days as the VC10C/K tanker variant seen here in RAF livery. Suitably she’s had some modifications. I was going to create extending refuelling lines but my iPad was having none of it so alas, they are missing - the lettering was a whole other headache. It’s a little ‘Jonny aged five’ but the effect is good from a far but far from good. I think that concludes the awesome second-generation jet airliners made in Britain, now for something completely different I think.....

    Thanks @RamboJutter very kind for the spotlight, and yup the lettering was borderline emotional and then I had to un-mirror it which was another minor epic....

    @Tang0five I cant believe you managed this on a tablet, the lettering alone must have taken ages.

    @Tang0five Thats a great build. Im a keen admirer of British aersospace achievements and this aircraft is a fine example of it. Its a pitty that u are in iOS platform and cannot exploit the full spectrum of the xml modding. this could be an amazing aircraft. Check my profile for the Jaguar II GR6 attack aircraft in RAF colors and my KC-54 Gaur tanker aircraft for some ideas to further develop ur tanker design. Keep up the good job mate!
