Model Forum / General / Models / November 2007Boeing 747-400 Out of Production Models
Boeing 747-400 Out of Production Models These livery were discontinued on Singapore Airlines after they caused flight SQ 006 to crash. Last model produced in 2000. Truly limited edition. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260186455587 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260186456256 How does a livery cause an airliner to crash? > Boeing 747-400 Out of Production Models > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260186456256 > Boeing 747-400 Out of Production Models > [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260186456256 That is what I was wondering.... > That is what I was wondering.... Didn't you hear? The used some odd Chinese made paint which caused airflow delamination on the fuselage and vertical stabilizer. Aircraft do not fly well when the airflow is delaminated. :-) Peteski >> That is what I was wondering.... > [quoted text clipped - 3 lines] > :-) > Peteski No, I had not heard what the results of the investigation were- thank you. BTW, is there any site that posts results of investigations? All the news in the US does is tell/show the crashes but not the results months later. Too much lead in the paint....

And the added weight of the paint caused the plane to crash?
