My FULL 1:400 scale collection

[Starz10p Aviation]

I have seen several other threads about collections, and I figured it’s time to start my own. I currently have 56 models in my collection, with 8 of those on order currently. I have been collecting since October 2021. I collected slowly for a couple years then unfortunately left the hobby behind. But seeing a couple videos from creators like Model Aviation, MileHigh aviation and at the time, JJ Skippy, in 2024 I reignited my passion for collecting model aircraft by buying two models to bring my total collection (at the time) to Ten models. Growth was slow over 2024, picking up around October of that year, when I started making model aircraft videos on Youtube, and then slowing down. Right when I first joined MAF, my collection sat at around 25 Models. It has now doubled over the summer to the current total.

Anyhow that’s the main history of my collection trends, I mostly collect US and Japanese models.

Now the first model I ever got was in 2021, when I was still quite young. I got a Gemini Jets WestJet Saab 340. In hindsight, I should have picked up a United Express aircraft, back when they were still being released by GJ (They have since fixed that problem).



MODEL INFORMATION

Airline: WestJet Link (op/d by Pacific Coastal)
Aircraft: Saab 340B

Acquired: October 2021
Item #: GJWJA1821
Reg: C-GCPF

This model has served me well for years. I’m glad to own it, it is a great little model and a must-have for anyone wishing to make a Canadian fleet. It’s rather unfortunate these have been retired though.

I will keep updating this thread with my models, and I will be going in chronological order of me acquiring them

I look forward to seeing them

Second day, second model! The second (and third) models I ever got were the Egyptair Boeing 707-320’s from GJ. Not the most helpful models to my collection, but interesting adds regardless. These were both gifted to me by two separate people in December 2021.

The models are not very detailed, but that makes sense due to the old age of these models.
