Hmmm let's see here doors need to be white but besides that even though I think the kangaroo colors seem to be a bit on the light side it's not a half bad model. Could it be that Tucano actually made a model half way right or did I not find something?

Wellllllllllllllll, it's a picture of a sample, so I hope that they put better pylons on the coming release, the upper window row will not be of a B747-400D ( two pax windows too much) and that the price will be under $35. Nuff said.
BTW, I'm happy that I have the DW version

Regards
Michael

I couldnt agree more. Glad I got the DW the first time around. They should have left this hunk of metal a Ford Pinto.

What is amazing is this idiots at Tucano advertise models they have no license to produce !!. Don't they know the the QF legal department is doing everything they can to do something about these models ?

For the record GJ is making the Wunala and Nalanji so why buy this thing ??

TUCANO, can you do something original........ that you have the OK to do from the carrier ??

What the hell is going on with Tucano! They did an awsome job with the Bankok Air 717! But will the line stop there? I am trying not to complain here but this really sucks! I REALLY want to know what is going on! I am going to e-mail Qantas lic. dept. and find out the truth!

That would have been a Dragon model made for Tucano.
