I have to say after months of receiving new AC models with questionable QC, these Laker DC-10s seem really impressive to me. No QC issues and the build quality seems very sturdy. Not sure if something changed in the factory or if this is just a one off…

I had 9 DC-10s in stock from that batch, all were solid.

 
A post-Christmas haul began today with some new arrivals from Wildcat. Snagged a Republic 727 off the collection sale, and the United 727-100 from the Gemini November releases. I will be doing a Herman's Odyssey 2 at some point...

Saw the United 727 at MTS bout an hour ago, but I wasn’t very interested. Good release by GJ but it wasn’t in my plans to get it.

I can only say that I prefer the old small title to the current big title.
And actually I also wanted to ask whether I should choose NG or JC if I'm buying a B-HNK?:unsure:

PHX 777s are still solid after so many years.

On another note, the fuselage band here is grey as well
