Yemenia A310-pics.

Sorry for the weird lighting. I was too lazy to get out the flash.

Re: Yemenia A310-pics.

It is a great model. I am sure yours doesn't have weight (imbalance) problem which often happens on Herpa's A313 mould.

Angie, actually mine is nose-heavy. Quite a nuisence when trying to display in an airport scene.

Re: Yemenia A310-pics.

Better then the old one
The fusalage seems a little chunky and the nose a little pointy.

Re: Yemenia A310-pics.

aren't the cargo door imprints a bit too high?

on a related note, yemenia has two other livery variations on the A310:

The second picture shows the latest livery, which has been introduced in 2007.
Don't wait to long getting this discountinued model.
Since more than one week it's out of stock at HERPA.

i think that is expected since Yemenia's new flagship is the A330-200.

What do you wanna tell us?! The A330-200 has been Yemenia's new flagship along when HERPA released this model in autumn 2004.

precisely that! that it is not surprising that herpa has discontinued this model after only one production run - because the A330 is the new flagship.

Ah, I see. You didn't get it...
My intention was only to tell him that this item is no longer available at HERPA.
I have nothing said about the reason why it is discountinued. That is why I asked what you wanna tell...
Please read my statement again.
