Probably a Hawaiian 717, but if Phoenix ever wants to do an AirTran 717 again... my Orlando Magic could use some more comrades. :)

Friendly reminder that NG remains the only manufacturer to have produced the standard livery 757-200s in 1:400. Lives rent free in my head, if any model is deserving of a rerelease...

Great pictures, what a beautiful airplane. It will be a shame when they are gone. :confused:

You're right with the history of the airline. I'm just poking some humor at the situation. They have every right to advertise Alaska.

It's pretty, but a little ironic on an airplane that will probably never fly to the place it is advertising. Cue the obligatory "Alaska Airlines from Seattle" debate.

This livery is so awesome! What a lineup.

I don't know how prevalent the issue is, but I hope artwork mistakes (like the missing overwing exit decals) on the Icelandair 757-300s are not overlooked on future CRP models.

I agree with this. 3D printing can make it economical to bring obscure and uncommon types to the table. (Like that UPS quiet freighter I posted not too long ago :p)

I've only ever redeemed points once, and that was for a Caledonian L-1011 that was posted in error. Maybe I will be lucky this time! :)

Please and thank you... dirt or no dirt. :)

Those 4 I've listed are all 1:200. I wish I could see all that has been approved in this recent round, but they don't say when a model is approved.

Yeah the DC-10 has been approved for a while. Id say 50/50 it's out by 2030.

Looks like ~25 approved wishes today. Mostly 1:200 from what I can tell, and leaning heavily on North America. Notable inclusions: ATA 757-200/737-800 America West 757-200 American 757-200 Much of these wishes that have been approved have <10 supporters. I wonder if this is any evidence of...

This will undoubtedly be a high-demand model anyway. The Delta A350 specials sell and by announcing it, they "reserve" a few preorders from collectors who want the NG version, rather than Panda/Gemini/whoever.
