on what is it, AC or GJ?
AC, a CC-137 served as donor IIRC. Database says a 2004 release, yet my artwork files date to 2003.:unsure:

Edit: No, not a CC-137 (this was a different project), donor for the Ozark was a 2003 release USAF VC-137 by AC.

Yes, a Phoenix 747. But nice enough. I really hope the new NG 747 looks good and they make the old KLM colors. PH-BFN, the only 747 I've flow on.

The rest are custom victims. The Ansett F50 might be spared.😁

I like those Fokker 50s! Very underrated plane and so few releases in 1:400.
I'd like to have a custom of Nordeste Linhas Aéreas. Regional airline here in Brazil, which ended up as a subsidiary of Varig.
Hopefully i'll find a nice donor someday.

Got this from Threshold Aviation's Easter sale. Was marked as a damaged model so it was on sale with a 50% discount but it only had a small printing defect on the bottom in the "Saudia" logo with everything else intact. It also gave me an excuse to finally get a flaps down model in my collection. I came in with full intent to buy either the flaps up version of this model or preorder the Saudia L-1011 from NG so this was a massive win for me.

Well uh, seems I've gotten lucky with this model. The printing defect was a strip of paint(?) that just fell off while I was taking it out of its box to display it again, so this model came in perfect condition. Extremely random W.
