NG April 2025 Hints

[swagninja84]

On another note - I see the Colourful Guizhou is a re-release. Is it a licensed model now?

I love that scheme - great work by the livery designers

If that’s what I thought, babies definitely won’t have liked this livery

I don’t get it…

I don’t get it…

We should probably put this whole thing behind our backs…

Yes I know. Regs are the same
Looks like a non-Ultimate release. Curious as the previous is still available

Super curious about, the B reg A330
If it was meant to be MU B-5937 Harbin Winter Games, as would seem a logical conclusion, with the A320 Winter Games announced too, what compelled NG to pull it out of the release set? Artwork readiness isn't a factor - as they've announced few of the special schemes via photos.

Is it because they're being friendly with PHX thus withdrawing - as PHX was also going to announce it? (with PHX reciprocating by not announcing the A320?)

(conspiracy theory )

Go away for a week and 4 sets of new announcements appear so I'm playing catchup. I've also changed the way I record the audio so hopefully it is better quality. NG's April releases show an early impact of tariffs with a distinct lack of US aircraft, but that means there's room for some alternatives and a lot of B reg. Check out my thoughts and rankings here.

@YesterAirlines - There's actually 5 CRP wishes here that I've voted for -
- the two AMs
- the 2 DLs
- the Icelandair 100

Finally the Delta widget on the Sharklet is at the right place.
