MIG OKB An-32 for me, finally an AN-24/26/32 family in the blue cheatline color! If the Portuguese A339 is a regular non-special TAP then it would be in my collection as well (it could be Hifly as well but not high priority for me)! My guesses for others are:
- Holland MD-11: Martinair previous livery
- HK B748: Fantasy CX Lettuce Sandwich
- Ukraine 738: SkyUp
- Indian B77W: another Air India, maybe Star Alliance?
- Slovak F100: Slovak Government
- Taiwan B744: EVA Air (older livery with Traditional Chinese characters)
- Mexican B752: Aeromexico in the previous chrome livery
- Mexican DC-9: the cargo airline I presume? I don't remember the name.
- US B74S: Another Pan Am? It couldn't be Braniff.
- UAE B77L: regular Etihad without tag.
- France E170: Hop!
- Poland B763: LOT
- Italy A320: ITA Airways "Born to be Sustainable" white scheme.
- Tobago AT7: Caribbean
- Swiss A343: SWISS regular llivery

My only doubt is if that 747SP is NASA's SOFIA in white, if not then I dont have anything to get this round.

 

[Mark22]

Seems like a great release already. MD-11 probably KLM with Swan livery. AN-32 is indeed MiG and not Aeroflot, but hopefully they did it on purpose to fix issues after recieving feedback, before releasing liveries with highest demand. Good to see a Fokker 100 aswell, maybe they'll use the F50 mould again soon? There are 3 KLM schemes and 1 KLM UK yet to be done.

Nothing for me
I’m still waiting for the ANA 777-300ER JA795A in 1:400… They released this model in 1:200 but not in 1:400.

 

[LeoMuse747]

Some interesting stuff! Good to see MD-11, Fokker 100...
The Antonov An-32 is the highlight for me, I might add it to my wishlist!

The LOT 767 was released before, so I guess it's another re-release
The MD-11 can maybe be Martinair in new colors?

 

[Aviation Enjoyer]

Kinda far fetched but could that 727 possibly be a DAL?

 

[N399AN]

KLM MD-11

 

[JJ Skippy]

Eager to see what that US 727 is.

I've seen the list and you have 9 correct and two close to correct.

The US 727 is really obscure - nobody is likely to guess it although maybe that hint is enough for someone.

The trio of props are all excellent.

pssss......psssss.......
(i won't tell anyone I promise .....!)

 

[planes_on_a_shelf]

on another note, I hope they don't mess up the nlg and the cockpit on the MD-11 - like they did with the last classic Martinair scheme. Marred such an otherwise beautiful model - bought it nonetheless

An obscure US 727. Sounds interesting. Hoping for an Air Atlanta 727 or some other deregulation goodie

 

[CO777]

Before JC announces more new releases, they should really focus on reduce their backlog! There are still unreleased models from the beginning of 2023!

Sadly it isn't a classic

It doesn't work that way. There is a warehouse full of models some of which are over 4 years old. Then there are 'future' announced models, which you're talking about, not made yet that dribble out at a much slower rate. If they just focused on the new stuff the old stuff would never get released. It is crazy but I know people are working on trying to reduce the backlog.

afaik Gemini has the same way of working just to a lesser degree

 

[LeoMuse747]

Too bad... I want a Miami Air 727
Since it's obscure, not a classics scheme and it's US-based, my guess is USA Jet Airlines.

I don’t think JC has ever made a Delta aircraft, I really hope they change that one day

[Mark22]

Nice release. Might go for the Martinair MD-11, but I'm afraid it will have the same cockpit window issue as the previous release. Hopefully next time there will be an Aeroflot AN-26/32.

 

[777-300ER]

Please JA795A ANA 777-300ER in 1:400
