Yep, very obvious British DC-10 release and a real classic livery. Looking forward to add this Airline to my 1/500 scale fleet...

Re: NEW RELEASE: 1:500 Inflight500 British Caledonian DC-10-30

I am simply speachless, Ive been waiting for this model since i first started collecting 1:500 over 10 years ago. One of the first models i can ever remember owning was a BCal DC-10, been dreaming of it being released again, and by inflight 500 no less. News of this has just made my day.

One of the best looking DC-10s...a dream of mine is coming true (along with RG DC-10 in WC 94 colours)..Inflight500 is on the right way to threaten the Herpa dominance!

It looks like Inflight500 is experiencing almost the same kinds of delays as Herpa. This was already "announced" back in January... But it was worth the wait!

It makes you wonder if the models have common production sources--unique moulds, prints and boxes, but made in the same factories? Does anyone know the answer? Does anyone care? Why are these golf socks made out of polyester?he he However, re: the BCAL DC-10 model: this is another home run by IF500--great job!!
