The Gemini and Phoenix looked fine, as a aircraft from above, but the Dragon wings models with plastic wings went undetected, it just looked too much of a dagger without a handle, they had it scanned three times, I explained that the wings were of plastic. and all went fine. Photos coming soon.

now that you say that I remember when Michael and I went through the security check on our trip back to HAM last year, we used different lines and Michael also had to take out all of his models while they didn't care for the models in my bag.

that's the result of self control

Nice pics, John.

I also got the green tail JAL, it ws available for just 20€.
They had a lot of good deals there, many GJ, AC and DW starting from 5€. I got two Aeroclassis models, Western Airlines 720 and ONA L188 for just 5€ each.

The Xray screener was tilting his head, he then called at his supervisor and they both were pointing at it, I went to stand closer, and nodding to them, telling them that they are "ist Flugzeug-Modelle " in broken german, and one of them yelled at me to stand back

and then they continued inspecting the xray photos. Eventually they had me taking out the models and putting them single layer by single layer on the black things that goes inside the Xray.

I forgot to set some criterias before I entered the Food Point. And all of a sudden, I had already opened my wallet and what do you know, I had three models in hand already. Yikes.

Nice find. Maybe you can take some pictures of them too and share them here. Very cheap as well. The cheapest one I got was the 757 of NW. it was € 8 and some mixed GSE's at €5's.
I reckon that Miltary aircrafts were not that wide in the show. I'v seen some props in european Air Forces, but I think that's about it. Otherwise I didnt look good enough. I would have thought that Herpa/Wingsworld would present some of their 1:72 Mil Aircrafts on the show, but not even on displays. Hmm.. Oh well. Let's see what's coming on the October Show....

Dear Rex, you can add to your collection beatifull birds. I like your EVA´S, specially the 773's Phoenix and your AirFrance.

Only you need to add the other KITTY EVA.

Congrats,

kiwipino · 05-19-2009, 04:53 AM

Hey Rex!
New additions look very good!

Just wondering, do you know where I would be able to get the current NWA livery 744's (the ones they fly to Manila) from? & roughly how much?

Thanks!

Thank you Ricardo. The "Jumbo special title" on that AF 742 is one of 4 by Aeroclassics. I was told by Didier that, the other two was in cargo configuration and in one regual config = normal scheme. Hopefully and crossing my fingers to find it's three brothers.

Yeah, they will be displayed in the same cabinet as it's partner KLM.

Like the idea!
Cant wait to see it.
