Models of aircraft you've spotted or flown

It seems that the Thai collector community is large and actually Thai collector has many exclusive releases recently as well. Those TG 744s are mainly for Thai markets.
Yes, I had to source these two (JC) Thai B747 from Asia (Hong Kong) last year. They are also from my flown on list. HS-TGW (Star Alliance livery) and HS-TGY in standard liveryThai Airways B747-4D7 HS-TGW_3.JPGThai Airways B747-4D7 HS-TGY_3.JPG
 
Good to know. I hope someone makes one. And also a Thai A350, we have only a bunch of Phoenix and a GJ at the moment, need one on a good mould.
AV400 is going to release them, My Hobby House (Malaysia) posted the picture that TG A350 is in the making alongside with the A380s!
 
From my "Flown on" list and one of my favorite models.
Thai Airways B747-47D (1:400) HS-TGO from Phoenix Models 2008.

Delivered to Thai Airways in 1993 and had these special colors up to 2005. Been parked since March 2020.

I have flown on this one many times. One of my favorite among their B747 fleet.View attachment 3412
Looks so good. What a neat plane you got to fly.
 
Hi all,

now I’ll try my first post here. 😉 Flown on this one in January 2022…

Love that greenliner livery, my personal favorite etihad livery. So cool you were able to fly on it in real life
Yes, it’s really beautiful. And it was a pure coincidence that I was able to fly on it, because originally I booked another flight from Frankfurt, most likely a normal Etihad plane. But my original flight was canceled at 05:30 p.m. the day before traveling (!) but luckily the same evening I was rebooked via Amsterdam. That way I had the fortune to fly on this beauty, although the way I came to this left me short of a heart attack. 😉
 
I finally got my "flown on" list together. If I did the ones I spotted or photographed, there would probably be well over 200 of them.

First off, my first TriStar flight...Delta L-1011-1 N725DA flown in June 1979 ATL-MCO:

Continental 727-224A N66734 in July 1981 IND-SDF-IND on a special introduction of service promotion: $10 tickets each way.
It was in black meatball when I flew on it:

USAir DC-9-31 N933VJ IND-ORD in June 1982:

That's a great list! I wish I had the chance to fly on a Tristar, but the models are a great way to show off a beautiful aircraft!
 
Same! :ROFLMAO: I have been looking through old photos and it surprised me just how many models I own that I have seen in real life, without even knowing it!
Same here. For example, my SMA Hughes Airwest DC-9-31 N9338, I have a photo that I took of it at IND in 1985....in full Republic Herman colors.

Yeah! I never thought I had seen a Virgin Australia 737-700, let alone flown on one! I found a picture of myself as a child in the cockpit of VH-VBY, which NG released back in January! I just ordered it, should arrive this weekend.
