Holy Grail

[quanng]

For me these are the holy grails:
- Cathay Pacific B747-200B VR-HKG BigBird400 to complete the standard length CX 747 Lettuce Sandwich series, I have the 743 and 744 already so the 742 would be nice. I nearly won the eBay auction with 3 digits but lost.
- Varig B747-300 by BigBird. I just adore the old livery.

Sterling 757
Conair A300 and A320

Finally finished my set. Now while my true holy grail would be a United 737-300 1/200 battleship (1st aircraft flown on), these were the runner ups as the L-1011 is my favorite aircraft.

My holy grail would have to be an MD-80...more like MD-80s. Any of these: Continental last scheme, Delta Ron Allen and colors in motion schemes, Northwest "Thermometer" and "Bowling shoe" schemes, Republic "Herman" and "Mary Tyler Moore" schemes, TWA in Twin stripes, "Wings of Pride" and the last scheme, and USAir 3 shades of red and, the last scheme. Any and all of these I consider a "Holy Grail"...as all are desperately needed in my collection.

I so agree these must be made! Especially Reno Air! I remember seeing Reno Air , American, Delta, Northwest, Continental and TWA all operating ONT when I was a kid. That was the plane I remember most!

Indeed they are. I better hope for a re-release, or maybe get one as a custom model instead!
