Due to vacation, I was not able to work on the Airbus.
But now, I built the Nose Landing Gear and the Body Landing Gear as they are needed to be glued inside the fuselage.
Only small progress on the Airbus. Made tons of wheels for the landing gear. I think Revell uses the same tires for all aircrafts in this scale. They look exactly like on the Boeings.
The wings of the kit are awful. Twisted and bended. The wing tips are pointing down. Terrible. It took me some time and hot water to bend the wings to the correct shape of a landed A380. It’s really fascinating to see an A380 landing. When touch downed, the wings bend downwards for about 2 or 3 meters.
I need to pause the Airbus for a while. The vertical stabilizer is so much bended, I can’t get it correct.
After gluing, there is a big dent in the fin. This is awful.
I will buy a new kit and replace the aft section of this model.
This album will be continued when I’m ready.
