The Delta 747-400 - Page 2

Hmm.. the 744 looks pretty good in the DL livery. Let's just wait and see.

Looks coon!! Hopefully one day I will get to ride on a 747 in DL colors. I road on one once back in 2000 when I got stuck on Tower Air b/c my flight was canceled. It was a cool airplane but the FAs were rude and the in flight movie was broken. Not to mention the other disasters of that trip.

She looks stunning!

Mudanglee · 12-11-2008, 10:30 PM

Old Delta colours all the way! I don't like the new colours as much as the old!

Man that scheme on the preliminary pics looks amazing! Hope they make it in 1:500!

Question is who will be the first to release this beauty in the 1/500 scale my vote goes to Sky500

Ben175 · 12-12-2008, 03:06 AM

I absolutely love the new DL colours, have to be my favourite scheme from the airline. Looks stunning on a 744, and I can imagine the livery would be amazing on a 330 and DC-9

Delta Air Lines Blog | Breaking News: Delta Unveils a New 747-400 Livery

Can't wait 'til first flight next week!

Looks awesome in Delta's new color scheme. Wouldn't suprise me in the least to see Gemini Jets release this model no later than February in their 1:400 scale. They have been very agressive in releasing new models within 2 months of Delta acquiring new aircraft like the 777-232LR, 737-732w, and 757-231w (ex-TWA used for Trans-Atlantic services).

Ben175 · 12-13-2008, 08:47 AM

I'm sure a 1:400 GJ model would sell out very quickly! I'd have to get an overly expensive one off ebay or hope that my local hobby shops order a couple!

uncle beat · 12-13-2008, 09:47 AM

The Delta colors really do look nice on the 744. I am sure that there will be a 1/500 model shortly.

not too bad

Unfortunately that one isn't accurate, that one is actually better than what Delta came out with themselves, Delta pulled a United in regards to the small print United used at one point that was harder to read.
