The Best Moulds in 1/400 Scale Pt2: Douglas and Co

23/8/2016

In Part 1 we looked at Boeing and in Part 2 we'll stay in the New World and look at all the other manufacturers there. These are mainly US but obviously with a sprinkling of those from Canada and Brasil. The same judging criteria applies as in the first part so with that in mind let's get into it.

Douglas / McDonnell Douglas
Until the 1960s Douglas were the biggest civil aircraft manufacturer in the world and into the 1990s McDonnell Douglas were still in second place. Fortunately this greatness has been noted in 1/400 scale and there are plenty of moulds out there. Sadly they are often pretty hit and miss.
Picture
Aeroclassics clean up with the older types except where they haven't created a replacement mould - DC-3s and DC-9-10s. In fact you can argue that the Jet-X DC-9-10 isn't even very good but it has little competition.

The rest of the Aeroclassics piston props are excellent as are their range of DC-8s and longer DC-9s.

The MD-80 has also been poorly treated in this scale with Gemini's recent attempt hardly spectacular. At least their MD-90 is better.

The widebodies are dominated by Aeroclassics superb DC-10s except where they haven't a mould (the series 40). The Phoenix MD-11 just about edges its near brother the Gemini but they are I think both from the same original mould.

Rest of the New World
Gemini put on a much better showing when it comes to regional jets partly because they have access to the JC Wings catalogue. In fact aside from the CRJs and Q400 they are all really JC Wings original moulds. There also isn't a lot of competition in this space and for a while JC really hit a sweet spot with regional prop commuters.

Herpa's Catalina is a lovely little mould (almost the smallest in this scale) but when it comes to classics Aeroclassics is the company to beat. It does well again, except where it is shaded, just, by the updated Witty CV-880/990 and Jet-X Electra. Will Gemini ever use its CV-580 mould properly? I suspect not but even if it did it has a poor nosegear leg.

The Tristar gets a lot of people moaning, however the Witty mould is outstanding if only it could be rescued from oblivion somehow. The Dragon L-1011-500 is also very good except for the perennial Dragon problem of the undercarriage.

Re the last on the list - the L100 Hercules, I disagree that there is no competition and Gemini is the winner. The Gemini Hercules nose radome is undersized and not the correct shape. Dragon Wings make a far superior Hercules and as you are dismissing liveries, the fact they have only released this in military C-130 schemes is irrelevant. However, you also need to list the L.100-20 stretched variant which has no competition and GJ have released this in Tran America and Lyndon Cargo liveries. JC have used this mould for a Chinese Hercules.

Did you test the SMA moulds? I found those to be far better than any of the other DC9 ones.

Yes I did - I own several. The nose like on the Gemini mould is all wrong and looks more like snoopy than a DC-9. Check out my DC-9 mould review: http://yesterdaysairlines.weebly.com/douglas-dc-9.html

You've done it again, Mr. Stretton. Thanks for the wonderful writeup, I have always wondered how some of these moulds compare, especially when I don't have some to compare to. Keep up the good work!

Thank you for these mould reviews, Rich. Because I mostly buy only models of airliners from about 1970 on, I can't speak to the propliners. But for the jets of 1970's onward that Aeroclassics has done in 1:400--DC-8, 9, 10--they are simply in a class by themselves.

Other than 747's, DC-10s are my highest collecting priority. Aeroclassics DC-10's are simply unmatched. Their shape and fineness of features such as wings and stabs, plus the detailed gear and beautiful finish, put them in a class by themselves.

As far as I know, Gemini never corrected the 'static' gear on their DC-10's, which rules them out for me wherever Aeroclassics has done the same carrier.

Jim
