Old Airliner Needed

I need to buy a small airliner pretty quickly! Anyone know of anything about? I’m looking for something 748 / BAe146 sized, preferably just a fuselage. I’d consider something as big as a trident or 111, BUT I will be using just the fuselage – about 50ft of it. Must have full interior..

Any offers?

(Blackpool 748’s excluded…..)

Thanks in advance
LL

‘Must have a full interior’ seems to dictate that a freighter isn’t going to fit the bill!

unless a passenger interior fit is available seperately….

still chasing a few leads thanks to the above posts… I should find out more in a week or two…

What about AAs Electra fuselage? Might be worth contacting them anyway incase any others get scrapped.

Ebay may be off limits but that one was with Dick/James Everett near Ipswich http://www.everettaero.com/
They may well be able to sort you out.

So I guess Lindy isn’t Alfie who bought the fuselage for £2500!
