Italeri 1/72 scale
Fokker F27 Friendship
Mk. 600

by Tadeu Pinto Mendes

The F27 was one of the most prominent twin-engine turboprops in commercial use. Designed at the end of the 1950s, it evolved into several versions, including military ones.

One of the countries that used it was Brazil by several airlines, highlighting TAM with 9 units in 3 seasons, throughout the 1980s.

This is an excellent model from Italeri, which comes with all seats and doors with the option of leaving them open, which I did.

It was necessary to add weight to the nose so that it would be level after completion.

I chose to make it the Brazilian airline TAM with a CCS decal. His painting was in white, light gray, blue and red.
