The model is from a freeware download for FS2004.
The aircraft was first used by Quantas Airlines in 1934.
Scenery is FS2004 default.

Thanks for looking. Cheers, Mike

Great work Mike, looks like a postcard.

If God intended aircraft engines to have horizontally opposed engines, Pratt and Whitney would have made them that way.

De Havilland had a penchant for creating class in the 1930s and 40s.

They created very few "ordinary" aeroplanes.

They certainly did, just look at their Albatross, a graceful looking propliner with interesting construction methods

I'm always impressed by your edits Mike, great job

"Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth and danced the skies on laughter silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun split clouds.....and done a hundred things you have never dreamed of.....wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air.

Up, up the long, delerious, burning blue I've topped the wind swept heights with easy grace where never Lark, nor even Eagle flew. While with silent lifting of mind I've trod the high untrespassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of god"
