A friend gave me 2 1/48 DC 3 kits

[Heavy 7]

Hello All,
Joining, to read about what's new & what's still being used for building the models. The first plane will be displayed as flying, gear retracted. For a 1978 model the detail is very nice, the parts clean & crisp.

Was heavy into "N" scale for many years, anyone interested & building in N scale? I have a few items left to sell off, realistic, fine detail & weathering.

Welcome to the Herd! Is that the C-47 boxing, with the stick of paratroopers? I built 2 of those when I was a kid, when they came out. I think it still holds up well today, but then, I'm a Monogram fan. I grew up on their kits.

Looking forward to your builds!

Best regards,
Brad

Thank you all for the welcome. Will post pictures as I go...
Yes, it has the paratroopers, the other is EAL passenger.

Ah, OK, the civilian boxing. They first released that in '91 with the new parts necessary to make the airliner. You can make it into a nice model, and I think you'll enjoy building it. I look forward to a build blog here in the forum!

Best regards,
Brad

That’s an oldie kit from my youth years. Basically the same kit as the Monogram C-47 with new parts.
