They made the nose gear on the 747 shorter than previous releases, and I think the printing improved aswell.They appear different
Unless the livery is playing optical tricks

Looks really nice, I really can't tell much of a difference between this mould, AeroPolaris and Panda now.the 10000th Airbus has just landed. (GEMINISTAR)

said to be Panda mould.Would this be the Panda or Aero Polaris mould? Or is it a completely new casting?

@planes_on_a_shelf the Aero Polaris A350 isn't the Panda mould, but it is very similar. Aero Polaris seem to have a habit of making near clones of others moulds.said to be Panda mould.
Right. It's unexpected of HYJL to do this, considering they had the competency to develop such a great A321 mould - which NG would rent, imagine!@planes_on_a_shelf the Aero Polaris A350 isn't the Panda mould, but it is very similar.

On that subject my latest box from engtaobao arrived recently and included a pair of the latest Aero Polaris 737s (which are basically indistinguishable to the NG mould):
Awesome always been a fan of the US air chrome and US airways liveryTwo new ones arrived recently! An older release GJ USAir 737-400 and a GJ 2014 release US Airways A330-300! this brings my Legacy US 330 totals to 11 with 6 left to go (most being the dark scheme unfortunately)

Yeah a better approach to 90’s and early 2000’s aircraft would be nice. The Navy livery is lovely it hard to choose between it and the chrome.The last USAir livery with the blue tail shown there is slowly becoming a favorite of mine! Something we won’t really see much if at all from now on. The tail and general branding feels very sophisticated imo, even more so than the dark US Airways scheme that follows in the years after. Although the dark is still my all time favorite as of now. I wish brands would approach all the fun regionals and even some of the mainline that was around both those eras more as there’s a lot of little differences in schemes and hybrids still in that time.

The U.S. Airways livery and United Battleship are very similar in terms of the sophistication they give off in my opinion.
Hahaha miss AirTran… I always associated AirTran with the retirement community of 80 plus folks coming back to Florida in January from the Midwest.battleship is another great example of this. This might be a hot take but AirTran also had this for me. I loved the branding when I was a kid in its 2000/2010 hay days and it felt very proper while being unique. All good colors in the sky and the ground in those eras!
