A bit embarassed to post my lone arrival after @Theresa apocalypse222222...

Nevertheless, super elated to also nab one of HX's 747-400s. What an impressive rendering - definitely ahead of the competition, and at a lower price. A no brainer!

Shout out to @LeoMuse747 for giving the nod. Abraço,

Amazing bird! Glad you like it! I'm still hoping for a BA Landor 747-400

Lufthansa A340-600 in the older livery by Phoenix. Definitely one of my fav aircraft. Also my only shot of this plane at FRA (although diff reg).

Lovely, however that grey seems a tad dark. Is that lighting or did Pheonix make a mistake. Curious how that grey compares to YY's offering of the same.

It is definitely a bit dark vs the real aircraft, but not as dark as in the photo

New toys.

Got HL7644, iconic aircraft also the last 747-8i. And I just spotted it few weeks ago.

Are the C model 767s ship recently? I saw it was released few months ago, but I haven't seen them in my local retailers.

It used to be. Plenty of solar panels and stuff was recently installed partially obstructing views. The 346's picture angle is still doable though.

Seems so. Mine are on their way.

With NG's latest announcement it's a good time to start buying B-reg

. Loads of Xiamen recently and this one arrived last week. It features a staggeringly unrealistic JP Velociraptor but I won't hold that against it. Looks great!

 

[YesterAirlines]

I also acquired this pair of Xiamen 73Gs from Bedfordshire Diecast who special ordered them for me as he doesn't usually stock 'Chinese rubbish' . Awesome customer service! They each wear slightly different versions of the old livery.

That AA 320 looks great, just except for the color. I hope they do a 319 with IAE’s. I’m sick of the huge CFM’s.

Honestly, sorta off topic, but I somewhat wish the AA livery looked more silver like that IRL. Got a pic while spotting at CMH that looks pretty close to it due to the lighting and it looks a LOT nicer than the flat gray they use

Glad I could get you guys together for this one! Curious, is that a giant glue smudge on the wing join on the AA?

It might partially be due to my lighting, i’ll get proper photos in the sunlight eventually. outside of the miracle on the hudson A320, I have every other legacy US A320. there’s 4 total AA A320s released in this scale and I have all 4 so a comparison might be in order!

Thanks again! Looking at it, it’s highly probable that’s a bit of glue or something. I’m setting up a diorama for photos tonight so i’ll give it a double check!
