Avro 748

I have been searching for an Avro 748 to take some detailed photos of the aircraft especially the undercarriage, but have contacted Southend Airport where there are a few, I think 2 were sold to a Hotel at the airport, the other 3 I am not sure of as I have been given email addresses of Avionicare who says that they don’t own them, they gave me Trygonaviation email, who say they don’t own them either, but are situated near the Easyjet terminal and is impossible to take photos because of Security risks

Hi Gary
I purchased my plans from here
http://www.myhobbystore.co.uk/product/18389/2730-vanguard-drawing
I am planning to go to Brooklands in a couple of weeks time, I have already 100’s of photos of the Vanguard when I went their last time, but need to take some more measurements of certain things as I don’t like to take everything from a scale drawing

if you look on the third page on the britmodeller link someone has posted the photos of it
I am going to use the Aeroclub Bristol Britannia props and modify these to the right size, I will have to go back to Brooklands again and measure the wheels and scale these to 1/72.

The model is by Gene Hooker, looking at the vacform I have it is very accurate with the scale drawing I have I think it may of been taken from a travel agent model as it has no props or undercarriage, and the plastic is quite thin, if you want the address I shall have to see if I can find it, the model cost me with postage about £43

I have already emailed Julian at Brooklands but they can take a while to get back with the information, so I thought I would try here as well. It is for modeling as I have a 1/72 vacform kit of the Vanguard that I shall be building and would like to show some detail of the interior, as the cabin doors will be open
