Yeah I managed to pickup the GJ XLEL from WCD, but definitely will get the 773 at some point, thanks for the heads up

I would love to finally get my hands on a Pan Am L1011-500 by NG (why I missed on N510PA). However, I hope we are talking about the first in fleet N504PA (which thankfully matches the hint) instead of N514PA. The latter was released by Dragon Wings. Sure, it is worthy of being re-released considering how old the DW version is, but I personally, would much rather see N504PA "Clipper National Eagle" which was the first L1011 to enter service with Pan Am (JFK-CCS on May 1, 1980
) as this one was released by Blue Box. Though, old, the DW L1011-500 is an objectively accurate mold (within the limitations of the time), while the Blue Box is essentially a fantasy model with that wing-box fairing that belongs on a different type (hence more worthy of a re-release)

N504PA would be a dream! That observation deck was my favorite place on earth!

Hopefully this will mean that it is top notch and we can finally see some truly good quality releases. Phoenix is trying to flood the market with their versions now because they know NGs is coming. I'd bet that once NG drops theirs, people will be selling off the phoenix ones all around.

Yep, it's tempting to get the PHs but we're pretty damn close to getting top-notch 747. Just a little more patience...

You’re welcome, always happy to help a fellow BA collector out. I went for the AV400 G-XLEL instead of the GJ one

Garuda 77W is the new Korean 739, it seems. If only those two dynamics were reversed and they made a truckload of KE 77Ws...

Shame the Pan Am wasn't N504PA as some people were eagerly wishing it to be, however it's Pan Am, it's a L-1011 that's good enough for me!

Indeed, I’ll take it! We can get N504PA later.
Thanks for list. Might pass on this release. Annoyed it is a Shenzhen A330. Was hoping for a Sichuan one...

Wow, I am actually very happy with this set. I will definitely pick up the Ryanair as it would be rude not to 
and might even pick up the air transat and the BA as they both look very good. Hoping that we might see a Ryanair UK 737 at some point aswell as possibly another 737 without scimitars.

The British Airways should not be a 300ER since the art work shows the RR Trents, it should be the -300, hopefully NG Fixes that

Same here. It will just be the Jetstar A320 for me this time around.

I'm curious, I wonder why NG has never released a hainan a330? They have made the 788 and the 737 but no a330s so far. Would love to pick one up
