Ah I see, yeah they are expensive alright, but delivery is guaranteed within 5 days, not too bad! I bought some models in America before, but they took ages to be delivered, and had to pay for delivery at the door, UPS.. DHL are free.. And one model I got, a Starjets 1:500 B727-200, the horizontal stabiliser was falling off the tail! Ah just wonderin, if you would like to talk more.. Im on it too!
Ah sweet.. The DHL livery looks beautiful on the DC-9's! Yeah there aren't many shops around, I just buy online from the Aviation Centre Berlin.. Totally cool. Its like i'm in a scale 1:500 heaven cos they have so many rare models, especially the ANA and Japanese models.. And you get the chance to buy the Club models, which are nice.. Are you on Facebook?
Sounds nice. I have an IF200 DC9, and it's amazing. If you're thinking of selling it let me know. What's marks models like? Is it good, do they sell many airplane models?
Hey Neil.. Yeah it was Inflight models. They make 1:200 and 1:500 scale aircraft. Actually, the quality is astounding. I have a few inflight scale 1:500 models, and they put herpa to shame..
I have a TWA 707-320C and a Saudia Boeing 707-320C too. Also, I have a British Airways BAC-1-11-500! Very sexy aircraft!
i bought the EI B737 in Marks Models, there on Hawkins st. I think it was 40 euros, but absolutely stunning. I see Gemini Jets have a BAC-1-11 in the second EI colourscheme( i.e- the last colours worn on the 1-11!
Hey Neil, good to hear from you. I 've actually got a few 1:200 model aircraft, including a beautiful Aer Lingus Boeing 737-200 in its delivery colours, I might get rid of it, just need to make room for more 1:500 models i'm getting. Thats cool, yeah I am definitely hoping for herpa to release an EI A320 in the 1:500 scale. I think i've started a fight on one of the threads, i said that i hated the EI Shorts 360 release and a few of the collectors are not happy what I said. i dont care though, i hated the shorts 360, i flew on one, and the SAAB 340 was way better and more comfortable..
