Re: us airways express DHC-8-102 #2808

You can try to find it with our database. If you look at the database entry of this model:

Model Details for Herpa 1:500 US Airways Express / Piedmont Airlines DHC-8-102 - Wings900 ID# 2808

you see at the bottom left the feature "Find Trade: Available: Yes". If you click on "Available Yes" you send an automated pm to the one who marked this model as available for sale/trade in his collection.

The wordling would be like this:
__________________________________________________ _____________________

Are the sellers asking for a lot if $$$? I remember it sold out real quick when it was around.

I had three of this aircraft at one point, check ebay because they pop up every now and again.

Got mine from some British guy for about $20 a few months ago. Wasn't in the best condition, but the model's so small and the engine cowling's in the way to see the fault. You can get pretty lucky, and when you get the chance, GET IT.

Re: us airways express DHC-8-102 #2808

I bought mine in a little shop in Colorado Springs. Unfortunatly the vertical stablizer broke off, but I was able to put it back on with some special glue, and you can't even tell.

When I looked at the model on the DB it said there were a couple people selling it so I sent them a PM but I have not heard back from them. It has been a while 2.
