DHC-8 Q400 FlyBe

53.2k Tang0five  4.1 years ago

Well ladies and gentlemen. Here's an offering of something I used to travel in on a regular basis, FlyBe's Q400. Alas FlyBe has folded due to a cocktail of poor management, crippling UK internal flight/airport tax and the present covid crises. The latter goes to show how long ago I started building this. It was meant to be a quick farewell ode to FlyBe but it grew arms and legs and turned into a hefty build on my Ipad and then had to be finished on PC.

Farewell FlyBe, I will miss those short haul flights!

    Well I never! What’s happened with all their routes - all the competitive ones have been take over. Loganair have taken on a profitable margin of then. @wigdon

    Cheers! It’s a bit lumpy but accurate in terms of the window dimensions. @SierraX

    Cockpit shape isn't realistic but good replica.
