WANTED- Britannia 732 model

Does anyone have and is willing to sell, or know where I can source a push fit model of a Britannia 737-200 in late 70’s early 80’s livery ?

Cheers

Sorry EGNM, I’m not willing to sell it at the moment. I’ll only regret it down the road, such as last year when I gave away 3 different Dan Air sickbags.

Sorry.

It does look like a 767 of sorts, Britannia introduced the 767’s in the livery below though.

I remember looking at an in-flight magazine in 1981 which showed the “futuristic” 767 as an artist’s impression in those 70’s colours. I think it was early 1984 when they finally got them in service and defo not in that livery.

Hi,

I’m sure you’ll find one on eBay, do a search for “Britannia”.

It needs to be in the livery pictured above unfortunately. 🙁

Ren I’ll have a look around for you on the net later on this afternoon.

Ren,

pick yourself up an Airfix 737-200 and I’m sure some company would have done a set of decals for a Britannia 732. You might get the kit mail order. Try a google search for Kingkit, they have a huge selection. For the decals I’d try somewhere like Hannant’s.

Regards,

Thanks Ren/Moondance.

I was hoping it was – though I can’t remember anything about the flight!

Yes – B733 were ex-Orion (1989 onwards), but weren’t flavour of the month and only lasted a couple of years in the BY fleet.

Question on BY 737s actually…..

I flew a BY 737 in 1986, would it have been a 732?

I think they got some 733’s around 1988 0r 1989 ? so probably a 200 in 1986.
