The only issue I have so far is the railings on the stairways at the end of the jetways break off very easily. I have had to glue several back on. The Gemini mat has excellent detail also. I put model railroad grass on the printed grass areas which looks a lot better. Will be putting ramp, taxiway and runway lights on next, but haven't figured out how to do that yet.

Could you not supplement the Gemini system with the Herpa lighting system for the runways and taxiways, - also to the previous reply in regards to 1/500 terminals again why not use Herpa.

The problem I face here in Western Australia is the price of shipping, normally I could get the complete set for about the same as everyone else but due to size and weight the shipping costs a fortune - does anyone have any suggestions?

Does anybody know if Gemini plan to produce more addition to this set, such as curve sections, ATC towers etc?

With the stickers were there no British Airways? - Will GJ plan to bring out supplemental sets say for a european, asian , South American or even an Australasian version?

Finally after all these questions, I too agree that it looks stunning, but I wish GJ would have a range as good as the 1/500 range by Herpa or Herpa bring out a complete range in 1/400 to match the 1/500 range.

No if you live anywhere it will cost money, Trust me it will cost more to get to NZ, than it will to Singapore.

A380-COTS,

The measurement of the mat together are 207 cm by 200 cm.

Thrifty,

I have not heard of any additions to the airport except there is supposed to be a second mat set coming (which I confirmed with Gemini Jets). The second mat set will complete the runways which will make it a very large layout. The Gemini rep didn't know when it would be released.

Thrifty,

There are British Airways jetway stickers as well as Air New Zealand. However, they are quite small and hard to read.

For those interested, other gate stickers include:
Finnair, SAS, Aero Mexico, Aerolingus, ANA, JAL, Alaska, Air France, Lufthansa, Quantas, Virgin Atlantic, Jet Blue, Varig, Air Portugal, Philipino Air, Citybank, AA, Southwest, United, Continental, US Air, America West, Air Tran, Emerites, KLM, Iberia, HSBC, Air Canada, Delta, NWA

I may have missed a few.

Excellent to hear, To have a neutral airport, one can opt for the HSBC or Citibank stickers.

But that's it ? No Visa ? No Hertz ?

Chard · 01-08-2008, 01:11 AM

I hate sellers who only ship to the US and Canada, They don't won't my money thats cool.

The shop City Models is Taking orders for gemini jets allthe time

WN737 · 07-05-2008, 11:24 AM

Each of the three sections are 16.5 in X 5.5 in. So all three lined are 49.5 in X 5 in.

Looking at your pictures, it is very tempting to plead to buy one, but, my question is, is it really worth about £100?
