DH.104 Sea Devon C Mk.20

De Havilland DH.104 Sea Devon C Mk.20 - 718 Sqn Fleet Air Arm
Amodel 1/72

My attempt to build at least one of everything in Ray Sturtivant's Aircraft of the Fleet Air Arm takes another step forward with this relatively obscure aircraft.



The RN's Sea Devons were ex-civil machines used as VIP and light transport aircraft, based out of RNAS Culdrose in Cornwall. Definitely a short run kit, this one is very nicely formed, but needs a little care in building. The cabin windows caused me a lot of angst, but it was worth it.

Grand job.

Very pretty indeed Fred, a cracking build

[Spaceowl]

Pretty bird, Fred. How many for how many out of Sturtivant?

I presume this is the new A Model kit. It turned out really nice.

[JamesPerrin]

Looks super. I'm fighting the temptation to buy one (I've a 1/144 vacforum), the Devon wore some nice schemes

[PropWash]

Nifty build. I like it quite a lot.

[Stupot]

Nice little build!

Super sexy Fred.

The model not you!

[jamesaw]

Very sharp.

[Purplethistle]

I like that a lot. A pretty little plane, well done.

Very nice sharp looking model Fred, lovely. I wasn't aware of the Sea Devon.

I've done a couple of Amodel kits, they often need a bit of fettling and fiddling but they turn out great in the right hands, as you have proved!

Very nicely done, Fred and what a handsome "twin" the Sea Devon is.
