mostly, from american airlines one engine ripped off after take off, investigation discovered that complicated procedure of uninstalling and installing engine forced ground technitian to find short cut and they did but damaged engine support/pylon, found on more dc-10 but fortunately did not braek
I can not remember how many of these models I destroyed whilst attempting to assemble them as a kid in the 70s. For me, the most difficult part was applying the decals, very tough to get them straight and lined perfectly before they dried and adhered to the model...As for the instructions...who needed instructions? I was a 9-year-old kid, I knew everything? (turns out I did not). So, I just "winged" it, if you'll pardon the pun. Another $2.00 from my parents down the drain, oh, the memories.
one of my favourite plane...now absolutely classic D C -10. Those DC -10 got their own histories of "Problems" and some "Accidents" as well, I 've taken maybe 3 or 4 of them in my life to fly trought.....Great Job !!!!
Nice work! There was a joke going on in the 1980. Question : for what stands KLM? Answer : (in dutch language) Koop Lockheed Majesteit (Buy Loockheed Majesty) The normal answer would be : KLM stands for : (in dutch language) Koninklijke Luchtvaart Maatschappij (Royal Dutch Airline). Explaination: An emblematic figure of the Dutch royal family, who died at the age of 93 in 2004, Prince Bernhard , nicknamed "Bernhard the indestructible" by part of the Dutch press, had survived one of the greatest scandals of the last century in the Netherlands: the Lockheed affair. It was in 1976 that the scandal broke out: it was revealed that the prince had received more than $ 1 million in bribes to encourage the purchase of aircraft from the American firm. Strictly avoiding prosecution, he was only forbidden wearing his uniforms and losing his military duties. On the other hand, he was able to display his decorations until the end of his life.
Thanks! The airbrush I used in this video is Iwata HP-CS. I also have a badger sotar 20/20. I like them both. I also started out only handpainting but now I've switched to airbrushing most of the kits
Hmmmmm.....may be wrong on this..... but the dc-10 did not have the center main landing gear.....the MD-11 had the center landing gear, to support the extra weight capacity of the 11 over the 10.
Sorry, but you’re wrong. Only the DC-10-10 did not have the centre main gear. The Series 30and 40 did. The Series 10was virtually only U.S “domestic”model. I believe KLM only received 30s so would have had the third main gear set up.
I have a question. Does the kit include the paint and the water-transfer stickers, or do you have to buy that stuff separately? The paint you buy separately I assume, but what about the stickers?
The paint I always buy separately although I think there are some beginner level Revell kits that include paint. If the kit doesnt advertise "paint included" on the front of the box, I would plan on purchasing paint separately. The water transfer stickers (decals) are always included.
Nice video! But there's one thing that I don't understand! Why do u get a transparent model holder that can't be put anywhere on this model?? And Revell never placed any instructions for that holder! Is it even normal to have it in the box? I bought 2 boxes and both have that holder. So does anyone know why it's even included?
This is just a guess but the stand may be able to attach to the hole that is meant for the center wheel in the mid section of the fuselage. I looked thru the instructions on scalemates and didn't see anything on exactly how to attach it either.
Unfortunately I can't remember. If I had to guess, its probably 80% blue with 20% clear. It's not a technique that I'm using anymore so I haven't mixed it this way in a while
When I madedmy first revell model it was a Boeing 747-8 for Lufthansa and I wanted to get all of the paints that i needed but because my dad is a bit of a cheap sake I just got the blue and grey and they were not the revell paints they were the paints the your Element school art teacher used
my DC-10's cargo door came off i tried glueing it on but now the damn plane is stuck to the ground. and i had to saw the landing gear off now it looks like a landless plane
I tried to make a 737 but as Aloha airlines the roof poped of so i glued it back and my DC-10 was fine but the rudder was crocket And my 747 was fine so thats why my 747 was the best
alright heres what will you need for the DC-10 decal setter model kit paint (it could be what ever model kit company is) model kit glue sanding sticks & sand paper sprue cutters model kit knife tamyia putty and a model drill (if you wanna add some clear parts to your kit) you might need super glue for the clear parts because using model kit glue fogs the plastic) masking tape
