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 livery

AV400 is going to release them, My Hobby House (Malaysia) posted the picture that TG A350 is in the making alongside with the A380s!
Really, wow. That's insane. Such a cool view.
Looks so good. What a neat plane you got to fly.
The Star Alliance looks so good.

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.
Wow, that's quite a story. Hope it was good outside of this.

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:
United 737-222 N9068U in August 1986 ORD-IND:
United 727-22 N7026U in July 1987 IND-ORD. Side note, boarded through the tail stairs on this one:

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!

I may sit down and do a spotted or photographed list eventually. It will take a while though.

Same!
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!

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.
