Thumbs up LH L1649 from Herpa

Well, here it is. I've got it Friday and I think it's well done. I hope that there will be a lot of Connies in different liveries

Michael

Wow! Looks like Herpa did a great job on this model! Unfortunately, I think I've got way too many Lufthansa models in my collection right now. I'll wait for more liveries of this suberb model!!! Dare I hope for an Air India model of this plane?

Looks nice will pass on the LH but if they come out with some interesting livery I might just pick it up.

yeah top model. i will get one even though it is LH. i remember
D-ALAP being parked outside the terminal at FRA around 1990.
it would be great if more connies came out but maybe it will be like the DC3 with hardly any releases.
i saw a Aerochargos and a AMSA connie in Miami.they would be nice releases.

Re: LH L1649 from Herpa



In the words of Nick Love
LAFS
Love at first sight

This will go well with my other Starliner (1:300 TWA by Solido, France)

The only three original operators of the Starliner were Air France, Lufthansa and TWA. No other major carrier operated the type, but some examples of smaller lines that acquired second-hand examples were: Luxair, Trek, Trans Atlantica Argentina and Alaska.

I was lucky enough to see the real thing at Stewart Airport, Newburgh, NY over 20 years ago.
