The NG Models Canyon Blue Southwest 737 Max 8 - the first non-Delta aircraft in my small collection. Unfortunately it was cloudy outside when I took the photo of the model but the livery should look stunning in the sunlight. NG did a great job as usual :) .

I don't often buy Aeroclassics - but the follwing two are items that I somehow can't resist :love:

Aerolíneas Argentinas A340-300 LV-CSD

The LV-CSD somehow has quite an interesting career - see the pic below:ROFLMAO:
20230520_232927.JPG
The A340-300(MSN:123)Started her career with Singapore Airlines as 9V-SJA, she was quickly dumped by SQ when they decided to trade her and the other 16 "Celestar"s for B777-200. She went to Cathay Pacific as B-HXM in 2001 with sistership SJB and SJC. The trio were stored in Victorville from 2009 till being picked up by Aerolíneas Argentinas in 2011. She flew for the airline for 6 more years before finally retiring in 2017.
I somehow have the three liveries she beared in my collection:ROFLMAO: The best is - the CX one is exactly LV-CSD's sistership B-HXO:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: What a lucky coincidence:ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I also got the Iberia and Aerolíneas BigBuses recently, pretty solid offerings by Aeroclassics. I also took a pic of them together, you can see it here. It would have been nice if Aeroclassics had released an Aerolíneas A342 in the Iberia-style livery, and the Iberia had the delivery version of the livery with the black radome. Mayebe in the future...

And my absolute latest just bought them in person at Airplane Models SG about an hour ago. (I don't get to buy models in person as often as I'd like).

A new arrival into my collection - PandaModels Batik Malaysia B737 MAX 8 9M-LRC - the first 737MAX ever to enter into commercial service. I wish I had got the model earlier when it was still grounded (better price then) but alas it's a real beauty. The batik pattern on the tail is interesting. I think I should get a Batik Indonesia as well but I'm still thinking whether to get the 738 or A320 if I had the chance.

Nice model. Very rare to find this one now.

It's a shame the older Panda models are hard to get nowadays (especially the A330s)..

Agreed, it was all over the places before. Especially like you said the A330 are extremely difficult to get hold of one now. It already went for twice the original price already.
