	I've had a pretty naff start to the New Year so far but now I'm back on line and I have internet at my new location, I thought I'd upload a few pics from some of my latest 707 repaints. �Just got to get them through our QC department and they'll be ready for distribution. British Caledonian USAF C-137B Stratolifter I'll keep you informed with events. Dave

	Great Job David!! Any chance you can do any private liveries like the following please? http://www.airliners.net/photo/Untitled-%28Mali-Government%29/Boeing-707-3L6B/18... http://www.airliners.net/photo/Untitled-%28Lowa%29/Boeing-707-330B/1798846/&sid=... http://www.airliners.net/photo/Untitled-%28Mali-Government%29/Boeing-707-3L6B/17...

	David, Re British Caledonian I prefer the classic paint it flew with for most of the years (I flew many times in BC in DC-10) http://www.airliners.net/photo/British-Caledonian-Airways/Boeing-707-373C/183212... You can see in the pic the letters font are smaller and stylish classic. In the 80s they changed the font to larger letters but I think your paint is too large. In your paint the letter "B" goes up doubles the size of the door, when in fact it was just a bit higher than the door. The fonts being too large or different is the most difficult part in painting planes I guess..specially if they curve in the fuselage. My wish would be for a classic Aerolineas Argentinas, http://www.airliners.net/photo/Aerolineas-Argentinas/Boeing-707-387B/1144128/L/&... or the new http://www.airliners.net/photo/Aerolineas-Argentinas/Boeing-707-387B/0953201/L/&... take care.

K Thanks Kaptain for the tips but us at McPhat have a dedicated Quality Control process and He's blooming good. I understand where you are coming from on the reference image you posted but if you take a look at pictures of the aircraft I have used for reference (G-AYEX) you will see that it has a different font. http://www.airliners.net/photo/British-Caledonian-Airways/Boeing-707-355C/163993... Thanks Jacob, you're kicking out some great work too.
