NG Models May 2023 Release Hint

[Alzyerpal]

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

It's a fantasy though, see their Facebook post attached. Anything goes I suppose ? It really shouldn't 'be' at all.

Nice they're releasing the Transat Pride - Hopefully they'll do the Avianca Pride and the Lovehansa one as well. And of course the Quantas Pride and the DHL 757 Pride.
Hopefully AC does the A300 DHL Pride in June

Yep, I'd love to see both Qantas Prides done by NG. I'd happily replace my current versions with them!

Yeah was hoping at least there was some accuracy but guess not

Hopefully a non-fantasy BA Landor 772 is on the horizon.

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

Or even better: A330s.

From what I read somewhere (I don’t remember): Rolls Royce has undeveloped Trent 800 variant for the 77W before the GE90-115B exclusivity.

That's what the market really needs tbh, one in the old small titles and a modern big title scheme would be great.

I don't know why they didn't announce this one. That's the Garuda we need. Fresh off the paint shop. JC did but that's a largely wtf mould.

I think NG knows that and well they keep calling it a fantasy model

In reply to my own comment - this will be announced in June as per NG. This one is going to be great. Hopefully they won't mess up the cockpit and cabin windows though - like in the most recent Air China A333.

BA Landor looks great on every airframe, but that 77W Landor fantasy will only get my money if it comes with GEs. If it's anything else, no deal. I like fantasy stuff as long as engines aren't touched

I'd like if NG would pay some more attention to stuff that really existed like a Lauda 772 or simply a Landor 772?

Well, I know where my money is going next month!

Solid release! Nice balance of quality offerings, but also not too much damage on the wallet! Good opportunity for NG to play some catch-up! Nicely done!

I agree with you

You mean the Trent 8104 for then called 777-X programme?
From what I've read online, Trent 8104 has actually been developed and tested at RR's place - the engines just never have the chance to power 77W/77L.
So in some sense the NG's choice could be right if GE did not stikre the exclusive deal with Boeing on the powerplant option of 77L/77W and RR continued with the Trent 8104.
However I remember that NG has sent out a 77W wing + RR engine blank unit to Yesterday Airlines back when their 777 are in final preparation for release, think this Landor RR 77W might be coming from the same batch and NG decide to try milk some cash from these otherwise scrap junk?

I'd think they have a standardized pylon to wing joint so that you can fit either engine type to eighter wing. Samples usually only show the possibilities. (Remember NG's Tu-154 sample with two different wings?)

and the Trent is on the 773 which is interesting for sure

Just the Pan Am for me, but I'm really happy to see it since I missed out on the previous PA Tristar NG made.
