I think Qantas are very happy with their strategy to drastically reduce capacity to create scarcity and enable higher prices and inferior service.

ONe thing I like about it, is around the Qantas logo on the starboard side the colour is a pinkish purple which emulates the real deal. Often it is a grey-purple on a model. You can see it clearly in the Aussie airliners page second and last pics of Nalangi. In lower light it appears darker...

Richard, you might want to revisit the 'underside detailing' section. It just says 'xx'!

In Trijetblast's review - his pics showed the cockpit windows really out of alignment, but your model doesn't seem so bad. His looked a bit 'deal breaker'. Is your noticeably different or am I imagining? I have a Tucano Line version from 2002. Which mold is that if you know off the top of your...

This is expensive! ordered the Delta, Lufthansa, China Southern and Qatar. Plus last month's Vietnam Airlines 30th Anniversary and the HX QF 747 with fifth engine.

At least they've used the same colours, unlike the Delta 100 years, where the blue stripe on the fuselage on the A350 and A321 is a different colour.

that's correct. However, I'm not asking about the normal exchange, I was asking about quanng referring to: This is the exchange for new release models and is different from the standard Exchange Run

I've never seen this - where is it on the site? How does it work?

A nose down would be great! I would also love to see all of the original 18 order liveries Finally, the two final prototype liveries, F-WTSS and G-BSST. Seeing they haven't been done since Dragon days over 20 years ago.

the question is - which Christmas will they get released?

I would love to get a 747 with flaps down. Other models like JC Wings 787s you can hardly tell. The 747 is dramatically different. I bought the Patriot 747-400 House colours and realised after I bought it that it was available flaps down

Eztoys doesn't charge until the model is ready. I prefer it. I have $AUD1,000 with a shop waiting for orders from mostly JC wings. I try not to order JC Wings until I see them in the wild. I would rather have a pre-order and then charge.

When it opens, this is how you access and select the models. There is a counter saying how many days until the redemption opens, it actually means closed! https://modelairlinerforum.com/threads/ng-august-2025-exchange-run.2709/post-44942

The JC wings Atlas Air last 747-8F I was sent 3 before I got one that was intact. I've never more gingerly placed a model in a cabinet!

I also ordered the MD DC-9 UDF demonstrator - it arrived perfectly.
