SAAF B707-320

Hi All,

Firstly thanks to the HJG guys for some really awesome aircraft.

I am looking for a repaint of the B707-320 model in South African Air Force colours (pics available at airliners.net).

I would also like to know the possibility of adding the refuelling pods to the model. They are situated ourboard of engines 1&4 close to the wingtips.

The following link to airliners.net shows a closeup of the starboard pod.

Thank you

Realy need a full aircraft view to be able to properly assess its value/worth Brian.

Can't promise anything regarding the model.

If there was no model to support it then undoubtedly there's no point in us considering the repaint.

Hi Mark,

Thanks for the reply. The previous pic was meant purely to show the AAR pod. Here are the links to the other pics available at airliners.net. There are a few more as well.

As can be seen from the pics they dont always carry the AAR pods. Although it would be nice to have one with working pods, as with the KC135R has, it is not essential. A standard B707-320C will do.

Thanks again
Brian

Not yet I'm sorry .... but .... give the guys a bit of space and time to completer some of their planned/preferred subjects and before you know it I'm sure one of them may eventually be pleased to oblige

I like this one for some reason. I might look into it more when I get done with my NCO academy. One thing I notice different is the fact that #1 and #26 slats are pinned shut. As soon as I have some time I'll look into this as well as a few others.
Cheers, Gary

Oohh..USAF NCO Academy...been there and done that! It's intense and a little fun at times. Looks good on the EPR if you make DG. {Distinguished Graduate} which is ten times harder to achieve there than the "PME" course that prepares you a little for that much bigger learning adventure. I made DG for NCO PME at Incirlik. Learned a lot from these experiences.

Good Luck on this Gary!!
Regards
John

Thanks John,

I'm doing good, but I think I'm more looking for the other "DG- Done Graduated...). I'd be surprised if I got the other one. I'll know in a few weeks.

Cheers, Gary
