Model Review
| | Mould and Assembly: First off, I think Aero Le Plane's 737 is quite stunning among the plastic 737s we have out there. This is nothing like the Hogan's or Herpa's mould which looks more like a widebody than a narrowbody.
The engines are the only plastic 737 engines that have the right clearance off the ground too! Everyone else has engines that hang too low.
The wing to fuselage join is very nice too.
Winglets need a tad more work. I am not quite sure how to explain them but they don't represent the 737 winglet as well as Gemini Jets' diecast 737s do.
Front wheel could use work too, the axle is too wide.
Livery: Livery is accurate and what we have come to expect from Aero Le Plane. Nothing more to say here.
Details: The details are superb. Red lines here and there, bunch of aircraft markings all over the place. The removable landing gears are a nice touch too, especially the Gemini Jet-esque rear wheels when in the "retracted" position. In terms of details, I am not in want of more!
Cockpit windows may look a little too mean compared to the 1:1 version. If there was one Aero Le Plane/Lysia problem on any of their models, it would have to be their cockpit windows.
