EasyJet Europe Airbus A320-214(WL) OE-IZQ with 'Berlin' sticker by JC. Ironically enough this aircraft started its commercial as an Air Berlin aircraft with D-ABNQ as its registration.
This model has print lines at the front just like my JC EasyJet A320neo. Something that has been bothering me for some time with this mould is how can the CFM56s be so big on the A320 family but the same engines have better proportions on JC's 737s and A340s.

Air France Airbus A380-861 F-HPJC by Gemini Jets. This aircraft is currently stored in Tarbes, France. Air France was the first European carrier to operate the A380 and the first one to retire it. I used to know someone who was a flight attendant on the AF A380.

Those engines are so big you'd think it's an A320neo.

Lufthansa Boeing 747-830 D-ABYM 'Bayern' by NG in the old livery. One thing I really like about LH's 748s is that their registration matches the ones on their 747 classics. The original D-ABYM, a 747-200M named Schleswig-Holstein is currently at the Technik Museum Speyer in Germany.

Uh oh... indeed!

The nose gear came detached and I fixed it backwards. So that's on me. I only noticed it afterwards. I fixed it and now it is attached the right way.
