Permission to Land: The Fireflash

Aircraft enthusiast Ralph Morton recently commissioned a scale model of Fireflash from a professional modelmaker in the Phillippines, with a special BAOC livery, loosely based on the Air Terrainean brand.

The stunning wooden model recently arrived and looks like it has landed straight onto a runway in a re-imagined 1960's! Compare it to the earlier version pictured below.

After I ran the first article from Ralph, Terranova recognised the handiwork of the maker and realised that a model of Dan Dare's ship, The Anastasia' was completed by the same company!
