About product

Landing flaps for the Tu-154M in 1:144 scale

A set from the manufacturer LACI for a model of the three-engine Tupolev Tu-154M airliner in 1:144 scale. It is not a model of an aircraft, but an accessory that replaces the molded rear part of the wing of a plastic kit. Once glued in, the finished model gains landing configuration, that is, the form with the high-lift devices fully extended.

The real subject

The Tu-154 was the most widespread Soviet jet aircraft for medium routes and, with three engines at the rear, belonged to the typical silhouette of airports of the Eastern bloc and of a number of other countries. The Tu-154M version is a later upgrade with more economical engines and modified high-lift devices. It is precisely the high-lift devices of the wing that are among the conspicuous elements on the Tu-154, because the aircraft had extensive landing flaps on account of its high landing speed. A model of a standing or landing machine therefore looks markedly poorer with the flaps retracted than the aircraft actually appeared on the runway.

Building tips

Work in the order measure, cut, sand, dry test. Cut the rear edge of the wing off with a saw in thin steps and level the cut carefully, so that the new part lines up along its whole length. Glue the flaps on only after you have checked the angle of extension on both halves of the wing, as asymmetry is immediately visible on a model in a display case. Paint the inner surfaces and the mechanism before installation. Glue the plastic parts with plastic cement, for a joint with another material use cyanoacrylate glue and fill the gaps with putty. A model with extended flaps goes nicely together with open doors and extended landing gear.

Who the set is for

  • Builders of airliners in 1:144 scale
  • Anyone interested in Soviet and Eastern European civil equipment
  • Modelers who want a model in landing configuration
  • More experienced builders used to cutting into plastic

FAQ

It is not. It is an accessory for a plastic kit of the Tu-154M in 1:144 scale, and the kit itself has to be obtained separately.

It is the state of an aircraft on approach to landing, when the high-lift devices are fully extended. The model thereby gains a more dynamic look.

Yes. The corresponding part of the plastic wing has to be cut off and the cut sanded, and only then is the new part glued in.

You will find the exact package contents on the box of the set.
