1/200 Hasegawa Douglas C-47 Dakota

--------------------

 

Occasionally I wander from my 1/48th scale modelling, and the result is this Hasegawa 1/200 C-47/DC-3 Dakota. I finished the whole little model in Nissan silver, rather thick, so it looks like an "airline" model. Nothing airline about the markings, though. The Royal Netherlands Air Force operated quite a few C-47s as transports, and my model depicts an early 1947 version. It sits next to my Herpa 1/200 KLM Boeing 737 and Western Models 1/200 diecast KLM DC-7C! I am still building Hasegawa's 1/200 Boeing 767, in KLM colours of course.
