Latest Arrivals DownUnder!

August has been a great month for me, with a variety of new arrivals.

Here's the cream of the crop!

1:500
My Tiger Airways (Australia) A320 from Bert at CB Customs.


1:400
Gemini Jets Qantas A332, VH-EBG in new livery




Compare to the version done in the old colors - GJ has got hold of proper Qantas Red paint again which is good, but the leading edge of the vertical stabiliser photographs a bit pink now that the gold is no more on the leading edge.


1:250
Gemini Jets Ansett-ANA DC-3, VH-ANP


1:200
Phoenix JetStar A320, VH-JQL (wonky forward gear again!)





1:200
InFlight200 Australian Airlines B727-276, VH-TBR


1:72
HobbyMaster RAAF UH-1B Iroquois



Now how could a fella complain about that!!!

That Huey's a real beaut! The grassy surface matches it really well! Good job! Is that one of those DIY kits, doc?

Re: Latest Arrivals DownUnder!

Thanks for sharing the photos Doc! After our meetup this morning I thought i'd better look for these posts I've somehow missed.

Damn with the Jetstar 1:200 front nosegear looks like it didn't go down/lock correctly!

August WAS a nice month for you. Have to agree with the comments Doc she's a cracker. Do they have a reasonable range ( Hobby Master ), or should I ask if they have enough to keep you occupied over September.....

Re: Latest Arrivals DownUnder!

Doc, what scale would you recommend for RAF, RNZAF, RCAF and RAAF Planes ( Helicopters, Seaplanes). Looking more at the WW2 era.
