My newest Geminis are in. As another member said the GJ MD-80 is definitely serviceable and this Frontier is no exception. The AeroMexico Connect is awesome as well as they've modified the antennas to be just like the ones found on the E2.

One thing that has kind of bugged me about the GJ MD-80 is the singular antenna on the top of the fuselage. In my opinion it makes the mold look kind of goofy and I believe they are better off either doing all of them or none of them at all.

As far as I know they don’t like to do all the antennas because of cost and how easy they tend to get lost. It’s definitely lazy IMO but I can see their concern. I’ve got a lot of GJs missing an antenna…

Yeah, I'm totally sure that's why. looking at my older MD80's and MD90's from GJ with no antennas, I believe they look better as the overall look of the model is more proportional, if you're going to do it, I just don't see the point in only doing one.

Really liking the new AM livery!
Definitely an upgrade over the previous - looking forward to how it'll be on the 787s!

And that Frontier Saul Bass - gorgeous scheme and especially on these pencil jets - but this GJ mould’s forward region really needs an upgrade - now that PHX is also in the fray.
