Panda Models February 2023 Announcement - Canadian and British 320s!

[OscarBravo992]

Hi All!

Here are the recently announced releases by Panda for February 2023. There are a few gems in this set, and I am sure they will all be very popular. I also believe that this set includes Panda's first A320-100s in an airline livery, 6 years after the first two were released, giving us another active option in the -100 market. NG has also announced a -100 mould, but it is yet to see the light of day and even then I doubt it will be used much. Are there any A320-100s you want to see made? I would love to see Panda release a BCal, BA Landor and some AF examples in the coming months.

Thanks. I was expecting the ACs to do well, although Panda's unusual decision to not include a standard livery A320 puzzles me.

I'd like to pick up the AC symphony and BA standard livery. Hopefully the wallet will be on my side then

They look great! Only problem is, I need one with sharklets/fence tips, because they haven't been retired yet.

These are A320-100s - which didn't have the wingtip fences.

Indeed so and in the case of the BA examples, represent the aircraft originally ordered by British Caledonian prior to the BA takeover. So perhaps a B-Cal liveried example could be produced as well ? This pair G-BUSC. and G-BUSE would have become G-BRSB and G-BRSD respectively.
