America West landed in my collection today, and with that completes the set of the new heritages; GJ needs to do US Airways to complete the full set of A321 heritages.

Side note: I know there are some people (maybe not anyone on the forums here) that have been waiting on NG to release these ever since they were repainted; given their recent release trends I have no confidence that they will be released anytime soon. Perhaps that could change in 2025 but I’d like to see what their January set has in store before making further conclusions. Therefore, I recommend those still waiting on NG to get these from GJ because they are actually really good. The America West especially has the best nose shape I’ve seen on a GJ A320 family model since the United A319 Evo Blue from 2020.

Aeroclassics did the US Airways A321 retro. I think it was released in June, 2021. It would be nice to have a GJ version though.
 
At the final moments of 2024 - just 2 hours to 2025 here in HK, I would like to show you the final pair of models I get in 2024 - 2 JC 744s (Come to think of it, I start the year with a JC 744, and now I'm ending it with another JC 744😂😂)

A pairup with GJ's "Birthday Girl" made years ago...

Happy to report that both QC are decent😄

Also like to showoff a background piece I get from ordering the JC Cathay A350s (Though it didn't match FantasyWings Gatepad IRL on location😢)

The background also comes with a gatepad, but the quality is a bit letdown when compared to FantasyWings effort...

Got a lovely duo! Iberia CRJ-1000 EC-MVZ and KLM E195-E2 PH-NXE, both GJ.

Happy 2025 to everyone here :)

I'm back home after spending the Holidays with my family.
Here are my first arrivals of 2025:

Gemini Jets
Flying Tigers - Douglas DC-8-73CF - N4865T


My second DC-8 70 series, what a great bird. I'm very happy with this one, since it's quite rare to find.

HX Models
Boeing 747-100 blank


Bought this one from Taobao and finally arrived here. I'm very impressed! The mould looks wonderful to me! Too bad it seems HX used the 747-100 "Museum of Flight" release as a base for this blank model. Because of that, this model doesn't come with the wingtip antennas.
This will be used as a custom donor, and hopefully will be ready in the upcoming months :)
