I would say the problem with this one is the cockpit print. In general the print of elements on the mold. But the mold has shapes that are most similar with the real thing (yet not perfect). I just got the Thai A380 and from some angles it does look a bit weird but generally good. Certainly...

It’s an MD-11/DC-10

What’s the improvement on the 737? Looks to me like the same old mold.

Those cockpit windows look insanely absurd. Like some plane I’ve never seen before.

What an amazing collection. Congratulations.

I suppose legacy manufacturers are counting on people’s short memory, hastiness and tendency towards instant gratification to get these models sold. All of a sudden, 767-400 are almost all released. And now the A380s. Imma sit here and wait for the quality releases we all know are coming. Even...

Looking forward to these releases. Finally a complete family (if we don’t count the 90s and DC-9s yet). Curious as to how they will use the streaks. This aircraft family uses them on the endings and the nose. Panda has used them on the Tu-134s pretty nicely.

the over all length difference between one and the other is 0.57m but the fuselage length difference is greater at 1.06m. NG last created a mold for an A318 which is 2.40m. I wonder if one meter difference is too small a difference for NG’s A340-200. Nobody has made a tailor made A342...

It’s the camera lens. Basically what you have is a model with a picture equivalent of a selfie. The other most likely is a professional photograph, or at the very least the plane was less vulnerable to lens distortion due to its scale.

This one is dreaming of flying high! There are models in 1:200 scale that don’t have this level of accuracy, right GJs A321?

Great input. NG should put you in the payroll and they should follow these notes :) However, we have seen NG send sample molds that are half the way in the development and they might have already noted and be working on changes. If not then they should after this. the differences between the...

Those aren’t even trying to be GE engines. That’s the JT9D

You can bet the GE and RR engines for the 744 are out there already; I don’t think NG has a need to send every engine type to this show, the main point must be to show the aircraft mold. Looking forward to the pictures.

By the rate of releases by GJ I don’t expect them to do anything but keep churning airline contract order and a few 767-400s. Use their molds as they are and push them as they have over the past few months. However, via JC wings we could see at least that A310 come in to GJ as well JC will not...

Bet these will come in the future if not now. We have seen NG do the NG 737s followed by the MAXs. I would say their sights are in developing the families from version zero to one hundred.
