A380-800 British Airways, 1/144 - Revell 03922

The Revell 03922 model reproduces the Airbus A380-800 in British Airways livery at a scale of 1/144. This snap-together plastic kit (to be assembled) features the famous quad-jet airliner with a double-deck configuration, in the paint scheme of the British airline. Once built, it measures 504 mm long with a 555 mm wingspan.

The Airbus A380 is a long-haul passenger transport aircraft designed around a continuous twin-deck configuration. British Airways received its first A380 in 2013 and operated twelve aircraft of this type. With its impressive proportions, this subject makes a standout addition to a collection dedicated to contemporary civil aviation.

The Revell kit includes 163 parts and helps you recreate the A380-800’s distinctive lines: twin-level fuselage, wings with winglets, four engines, and detailed landing gear. The surfaces feature structured panel lines, while the cockpit is represented by an interior imitation. The wings receive separate landing lights; the tailplanes, pylons, and engine nacelles are also rendered in detail.

The landing gear features a total of 22 wheels, an element that is particularly visible on an aircraft of this size. The included decal sheet lets you apply the British Airways decoration and its characteristic markings.

Classified by Revell as Level 4, this model requires careful preparation of the parts, precise gluing of the major sub-assemblies, and regular painting to enhance the civil livery. Applying a suitable primer helps achieve consistent paint tones and makes it easier to spot any imperfections before applying the decals. A gloss varnish also provides a useful base for good visual integration of the markings.

At a scale of 1/144, every real dimension of the aircraft is reduced by 144 times. This format allows you to display a very large airliner while still maintaining an appropriate level of finesse for exterior details. The model’s length and wingspan mean you’ll want to allow enough display space after assembly.

The box contains the unassembled plastic kit, a illustrated multi-language instruction manual, and the decals. Glue, paints, and finishing materials are required to complete the assembly and decoration.
