I’d love a LH A320neo in the older livery, I’ve been looking for one like this (just hope the window printing looks good, if so)

Looks like JA8956 was one of their domestic configured 744. I’d love one of the international configured 744s (like JA9086) in this mid-late 90s livery. https://www.airfleets.net/photo/All-Nippon-Airways_JA8096_21433_b747.htm

Etihad I think maybe the most elegant one out there, and it looks great on a 787. KLM and Southwest are way up there for me too.

When doing a universal corporate minimalism, I wonder if it is more for global brand recognition and less for local banding purposes? In this model for example, is it that there is a greater difference between Chinese and English, or is there more need to differentiate the brand among local...

I always find it fascinating to see how airlines from non English speaking parts of the world decide to write their name on their planes. Do they use they use their native language/alphabet, or do they forgo it to use only english? I find it visually interesting to see both here on the China...

Ah this is fun. My minuscule collection fits on my desk… 2 B787s, then 1 each of: E175, DHC-8-400, B737, A321, A380. But I’m hoping to add the Qantas panda 737-400 from my hobby house soon,

I bought a 3D printed F16 after seeing someone here one the forum link to the person who made them. I’d love to see more people making fighters on 1:400 to accompany the passenger jets, so can’t wait to see this F18. Would love to see more F14, F15, and F16, and the modern fighters too.

I like them being a little closer to in-flight on a stand, even without the right wing flex. Not that I’d necessarily want them all this way, but for a few I find it fun.

The new KLM livery with more blue under the nose bugs me, I thought the original drop nose looked better.

Look forward to seeing if phoenix’s 717 mold is updated. It would be great to see some AirTran 717s.

If you make a Fokker 70 mold, I'd love to see a Tyrolean livery. https://www.airliners.net/photo/Tyrolean-Airways/Fokker-70-F-28-0070/227391

AV400’s 789 PH-BHO recently arrived. Something about the nose seems off to me (perhaps the angle at the top of the nose?), but maybe it’s just a trick of the livery/printing. I don’t think I full inserted the front gears for the pictures, and I’m using NG’s 789 Pokemon plane as a comparison.
