On Kanzaki’s last flight before becoming a full-fledged Yamato Airlines pilot, he’s forced to fly without the use of an auto-pilot. When the 747-200 he’s piloting strays slightly off course, he learns the need to be ever alert after a near collision with his former friend Shin’s F-5E Tiger II in a cloud bank over the Mediterranean.

It would be great to see the whole scene in a diorama, especially with the Kfir going underwing the Jumbo jet

That's funny, Thanasis, I was going through the stash and pulled the 747 kit out to have a look. I'm starting to think it might be about time to get this one done. 🙂

This scene is from the Area 88 manga where Shin's F-5E Tiger II almost collides mid-air with a Kanzaki-piloted, Yamato Air B-747. However, you may also be thinking about the scene where Shin and Mickey fly their Kfirs upside down and shoot bombs off the underside of a DC-10. That one has already been done - AREA 88: "The Upside Down Bomb" (DC-10-30) | Album by strobez (1:144)

Although, I do have another (better) DC-10 kit now... thinking about upgrading that one too, eventually. 😉

And... thanks to both Thanasis' comment, and my broken airbrush... this project is underway!
