COLIN-376564 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Has anyone any suggestions for alternative liveries for the reissued Fairy Rotodyne ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pretty Mediocre Modeller Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 As only the prototype actually flew, you can go to town with whatever you want for a what if. How about 60's BOAC or BEA, or an RAF airlifter in tactical camo with red, white, blue roundles? The overseas options are endless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jopres57 Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 From what I can gather the future of the Rotodyne was dependant on American sales that failed to materialise. If it had been bought, a few companies over there, like Pan Am, might have used it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Rickwood Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 jopres57 New York Airways were apparently very interested but the noise from the rotor tip jets was too much (although no worse than an early DC-9 or 737). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
